Well, I have the default margins setting in Guide (0,5in on each side) and I
get the chart displaced over an A4 sheet (part of the chart are outside the
paper!). How correlate the margins value to the position of the chart? I
think that you don't use the size of paper configured for the default
printer, you assume some size and make all the numbers based on this
value...

Well, in GS you can use the Boundingbox to clip the PS, and I have assumed
that this is working... Realy what I do is transform the PS files to PDF
ones with GS and then embebed this PDF files inside a LaTeX document that I
process with pdflatex.exe to generate the final PDF mixing text with charts
with jpg images. If you want you can see some examples here:
