* The pdf spec says that the box typically has the form: [ ll_x ll_y ur_x ur_y ] (PDF spec for 1.6, section "3.8.4 Rectangle") But there is a note that says that any two diagonally opposite corners are acceptable and that applications that process PDF should be prepared to normalize such rectangles. The question is now, does pdfTeX normalize the rectangle?
AFAIK it doesn't, and I've yet to see a PDF in the wild that has a rectangle with [ ul_x ul_y lr_x lr_y ] . I doubt that gs & xpdf can handle this... Best Martin -- http://www.tm.oneiros.de
