psbbox: Replace BoundingBox line in PostScript files by "real" BoundingBox

NAME

psbbox.sh - Replace BoundingBox line in PostScript files by "real" BoundingBox

SYNOPSIS

psbbox.sh file ...

DESCRIPTION

This program replaces the BoundingBox line in all PostScript files specified on the command line by a BoundingBox determined by the bbox modules of Ghostscript.

KNOWN LIMITATIONS

Works only for single-page PostScript files. Other limitations are the limitations of the Ghostscript bbox module.
EPS Ghostscript 7.07 occasionally produces no BoundingBox at all. Try using AFPL Ghostscipt 8.00 or later instead.

OBSOLETE

With the production of ps2raster, this script became obsolete.
