When I generated and printed (part of) the Xlib documentation,
everything was shifted left.  About 3 to 4 characters would be lost to
the printers margin.  The index worked fine.

This is not the way to print over 200 pages of documentation....

Has anyone else run into this?  I was running psroff on a Mach (BSD
4.3+) machine.  I had the same results on two different Postscript
printers.  Editing most of the pages out of the postscript file didn't
help (i.e. the printer isn't choaking on the size).
