Hi,

This is a simple printing program.

PRO TEST
save = !D.NAME
SET_PLOT, 'PRINTER'

ret = DIALOG_PRINTERSETUP()

HELP, /DEVICE
PLOT, INDGEN(10)
DEVICE, /CLOSE_DOCUMENT

SET_PLOT, save
END

Run this program on IDL 5.2 (Windows).
Select PostScript printer(output device),
A3(media), landscape(orientation) and press OK.

The output is like this.

+------------+
| |
| |
| ###### |
| ###### |
+------------+

(# is plotted area)

It should be like this.

+------------+
| ########## |
| ########## |
| ########## |
| ########## |
+------------+

And it works correctly with other printers (LIPS, ESC/Page, PCL, etc.).

Why only PostScript printers ?
Is there any way to solve this problem ?

Thanx.
