Hi.
  currentpagedevice (PageSize) get ==
prints out:
  [594.672 841.829956]
i.e. A4 in point.  Now if I add a:
  %%BoundingBox: 0 0 75 37.5
line, I would expect it to print [75 37.5] ; but it doesn't, gs
prints [594.672 841.829956] as before, which doesn't seem useful :-(
Is there a way from within the code of finding the BoundingBox size?

Peter
