Hi,


I can't remember the way to crop a PostScript image.



make a eps with GS/GV. There you are able to give the outline manual, if
needed. You also may be able to convert the ps to ascii, if it is in binary
now, then you should be able to do this via notepad, that's the way I prefer
;-)
Other way is to convert the ps (with GS/GV to a editable vector format like
AI or others. There I prefer emf that works well with M$Office

Why all this trouble? You can crop nicely right in Word, no matter what
format. As long as the imported graphic shows on your screen you can
crop it right there.

I am certainly not a Microsoft fan and IMHO they should not design
operating systems anymore but their MS-Word is quite a good product.
Very practical, useful, and it doesn't have the bloat or leave memory
leaks like OpenOffice does. I have yet to find a better word processor
than MS-Word, but I'm not looking for one because it works.
