I'm using psfig to include PostScript pictures in LaTeX documents. One of our
graphics utilities does not add a bounding-box comment to its PostScript
output. I remember having once seen a remark on the program bbfig, which would
scan a PostScript file and produce a suitable bounding box to go with it.
I haven't been able to spot it at labrea.stanford.edu. Does anybody have a
clue?
