Exported PDF and EPS bounding box
New user warning...
I imported some eps graphics from my statistics program (R) and then modified them for publication. The final graphic fits neatly within the page on the Inkscape screen, but when I export the picture to PDF or EPS, the drawing is too large to fit on the page. (viewing with xpdf or evince).
Not even epstool --copy --bbox was able to fix the bounding box of the exported file.
What can I do to fix the bounding box on export (and what did I do wrong to screw this up)?
Inkscape 0.42.2 compiled from source on Ubuntu 5.10 Linux.
Thanks for your help
David

Please search our bug tracker, I think we already have such a bug. Otherwise, please create a new one. In any case, attach the source and EPS files to the bug.

Just a suggestion... apologies if you already know about it.
I've worked with R a while back and instead of the EPS export, I used the SVG export that's available with the RSvgDevice package. It's available on CRAN and worked perfectly for me, no problems opening the files in Inkscape.
It might be a more efficient way to do the R->Inkscape conversion.
Kind regards, Arnout
I think I had the same problem: when you save your artwork as eps, A4 bounding box appears regardless your real page size. It's a bug and I hope It will be fixed in next release.

Well, I was repeating my work flow and copying files into a separate folder to submit the bug report and whatever was wrong yesterday disappeared. I fought with this for several hours before posting to the news group, so I have no idea what changed.
If I can reproduce the error I will submit a report, but today things look fine...weird.
