This is almost exactly the problem I posted here about a couple of weeks
ago - also with Uniras and EPS files.

  ^^^^^^^^^^^^
  I think this is the problem - well when I took it out of my file the 
  image got scaled correctly - although it still wasn't quite right, I 
  suspect the bounding box is also wrong.

As I have said in the past - if anyone has a program (probably
postscript) that will scan a file and indicate the illegal commands then
would they please let us know of it.  (Yes, I know about the Adobe file
server - their version of the program doesn't work with GhostScript
which is all I can use).
