Hi,

the white border is created by psrender, that is the
PostScript interpreter that comes with Mathematica.

I was never able to found out how the thickness of that
border ist computed and how to avoid it. Finaly I decide
to remove the white boundary from the rendered bitmap itself.

| Dear Mathgroup,
|
| If one with exports something like: 
StyleForm[TraditionalForm[1+E],
| FontColor->White,Background->Black]
| as a raster format, there is a white border 
around the math.
|
| I thought it might be the output cell background 
color, so I changed
| the stylesheet to Natural Color. Exporting the 
expression still yields
| white text on a black background with a white 
border. How to I change
| it so that the white text appears on a black 
background with no border?
|
| BTW, the output expression looks fine inside the 
notebook.
|
| One way to eliminate the border is to change the 
global option:
| formatting options -> font options -> background 
to black, but this
| makes (AFAIK) all backgrounds in Mathematica 
black. Even if I set the
| global option for text to white, this makes it 
very hard to use, say
| the notation package and help browser, among 
other things...
|
| Thank you for your expertise,
|
