FWIW, I'm using gv v3.7.4. Have you tried any other PS/PDF viewers? If they work, then it's quite possible there's a bug in your version of qv. So far I've tried gv, qpdfview, zathura, Emacs (v24.4.1) doc-view mode, and Claws-Mail's PS/PDF viewer plug-in. The only ones that don't show the entire document are the Claws-Mail viewer and, oddly enough, Emacs' doc-view mode. In both cases, the page number shows up, but the word "test" at the top of the page is missing. I've no idea what's causing this. Possibly because I'm running in a US LETTER environment? I don't know. Given that your old Debian box works while your new one doesn't, I'd go through the two of them with a fine-toothed comb. Find out where things are different. The answer to your troubles should be there somewhere. Out of curiosity, what does the papersize(5) command show for your system? It's possible that your system is defaulting to LETTER instead of A4, though that seems quite unlikely. I ask because I had trouble printing from a SuSE system. It turned out that the system default was A4, which I hadn't expected. I set the default to LETTER, and all was well. I don't know how much more help I can be, I'm afraid. I don't know much about PostScript, or how Emacs handles it, so I'm really shooting in the dark. To complicate matters further, I'm running Fedora, rather than Debian. They're just different enough to cause confusion. To quote Dr. Seaton, "Ideas are avoiding me in droves." --Dale --=20 Pessimist: The glass is half empty. Optimist: The glass is half full.
