[Axiom-developer] LatexWiki/Axiom wide output

[Bob McElrath]

Axiom can sometimes generate output that is wider than a usual printed
page, generating LatexWiki images that are black on the part that is
wider than the page.  See:

    http://test.axiom-developer.org/Members/mcelrath/Kxaxiomtest

For an example.  This can be partially worked around by adding the
-g10000x10000 option to ghostscript, where 10000 is the resolution in
pixels of the output png.  However this makes for larger temporary
files, longer ghostscript running, and longer PIL processing to chop the
image down to size.

I have been wrestling with getting ghostscript to be more efficent about
this for some time.  It would be ideal if I could get it to generate
png's sized according to the bounding box, but it will not.  If you have
any ideas...

Axiom should also be chopping up its output so that it is not wider than
a page.
