[pstricks] weird margins with a0poster

[maja zaloznik]

Thanks for that Herbert!

Not only did I miss the inserted spaces, I also didn't think to \noindent
the pspicture. It is now more symmetrical and more aligned.

And I now I have realised that the remaining offset is due to the thickness
of the line... Which of course makes sense now that I get it :)

 \documentclass[]{article}

\usepackage{pstricks}

\usepackage{calc}

\begin{document}

\noindent\begin{pspicture}[showgrid=true](0,0)(\textwidth,4)

\psframe[linecolor=red](0,0)(\textwidth,4)

\rput[bl](0,0){%

\psframebox[framesep=0pt, linewidth=5pt]{%

\parbox{\textwidth-10pt}{%

text%

}}}%

\rput[bl](0,1){%

\psframebox[framesep=0pt, linewidth=5pt]{%

\parbox{\textwidth}{%

text%

}}}%

\rput[bl](0,2){%

\psframebox[framesep=0pt]{%

\parbox{\textwidth-1.5pt}{%

text%

}}}%

\rput[bl](0,3){%

\psframebox[framesep=0pt]{%

\parbox{\textwidth}{%

text%

}}}%

\end{pspicture}

\end{document}

Sorry for the spam!

Maja.
