HELP!!! The device bbox for GS seems to have vanished between GS 6.01 and
7.05! I rely on this little feature heavily for my dissertaion. Is this
specific to Gerben's distro or am I just SOL? Is there any way to get bbox
as a device for 7.05
TIA

This is a problem with the previewer, not with the pdf file. The bottom
of some symbols (integrals, large parentheses) appears truncated in the
TeXShop previewer, if these symbols extend beyond the visible part of
the page (a problem at high magnifications). If you scroll to bring the
full equation in view, the previewer does not fully refresh the page and
these symbols look like they are missing their bottom. To force the
previewer to refresh, scroll to the position you want, go one page back
(or forward), then return to the page you want. The symbols should look
fine. Or, decrease the magnification so that you see the full page. This
solution works in OS X 10.1.5. Still, the file prints correctly
regardless of how it looks on the screen.

Is there any simple solution to this problem? This happens no matter
whether I use pdftex or latex/ghostscript, although the exact specifics
of the truncation changes between the two engines. I'm using pdfTeX
3.14159 with TeXShop 1.20 on OS 10.2.1 (6D52).

Not true. The printed version looks incorrect as well.
For anybody who wants to test this problem, here's a test file:
--- BEGIN TEST FILE ---
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}\usepackage{amssymb}
\begin{document}
$$\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{2}}$$ \\ $$\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)$$
\end{document}
--- END TEST FILE ---
The printed version has truncated radical and parentheses when printed
from TeXShop or Preview. However, Acrobat views and prints this just
fine.
Ugh. Hope this isn't a NSPDFRepresentation bug.

For what its worth, I copied and pasted Andrew Farmer's document,
below, into iTeXMac. It appeared perfect on the screen (full
parentheses etc.) and prints perfectly.
I occasionally see incomplete parentheses on the screen image using
iTeXMac, but they have always printed perfectly.

I ran this through tex+ghostscript using TeXShop 1.19 and it looks
fine. The print preview looks fine too. Do I need to actually print
this?
Might it be a printer driver problem?

The test file looked fine in TeXShop 1.20 and Jaguar with a=3D20
magnifcation of 200%.

Try scrolling the image around. The bug is only triggered when the
elements go out of the window.
