I am using skencil with the GeoObject add-on together with
Shape files on linux SuSe 8.1.
I try to export to Postscript (Save as Postscript) which seems to be EPS. All is fine, but I cannot open the exported file with other graphic programs as gimp or display or xv
This is the original header, created by skencil.
%!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0

When I change the line parameter for BoundingBox:
(original with Gauß-Krueger coordinates)
%%BoundingBox: -6 0 3545646 5785086
to the 'real' pixel amount and also change the order,
which means changing manually from portrait to landscape
it works.
%%BoundingBox: -6 0 595 842
To handle ps outputs using the GeoObject add-on like this doesn't seem to be very elegant. It would be nice, if the %%BoundingBox: could be adapted, so other graphic programs can read and edit the Postscript files.
thanks for you help
