Here's a cheat that should do the trick: rotate the
eps before it reaches groff (actually I don't know what groff is, but this works
for me in every environment I've tried it in).
The way to do this is to edit the ascii version of
the eps file i.e. upen it up in Notepad or some other text editor. You then have
to do two things: first if your original is not square you'll have to change the
shape of the bounding box, otherwise when you rotate the image you'll lose some
of it. In my experience this means changing the line
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 651 791
(your last 2 numbers are likely to differ from
these)
to
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 791 791
or something (the numbers are y,x coordinates for
the lower left, and upper right corners respectively).
Second, perform the rotation. I'm sure there are
better ways than this, but it works...change the line
LandFlag 1 ne {
to
LandFlag 0 ne {
Better backup the original though, particulalrly if
you want to use it in its unrotated form anywhere.
