[Ipe-discuss] bounding box problem

I have a problem with a diagram with a bounding box which is too big, it 
sticks out way beyond the right hand edge of the drawing.

I use pre 26.

The drawing is straightforward lines and latex text.  I've done "select 
all" to highlight all objects and check there aren't any objects that I 
had overlooked.

I looked at the .eps file and manually altered the bounding box (that's 
the one and only thing I know how to do with postscript).  But when I 
load the file into ipe,  the bounding box gets changed back when I save.

I append the xml file.  If I've done something stupid, please let me know.
