TeXLive 2016: Standalone + pstricks not working
The issue is known and has been reported a the standalone bug tracker: https://bitbucket.org/martin_scharrer/standalone/issues/25/pagesize-special-clipping
Work arounds are:
\RequirePackage[nosetpagesize]{graphics}
\documentclass[pstricks]{standalone}
\begin{document}
\begin{pspicture}(0,0)(5,4)
\psline(0,0)(5,4)
\end{pspicture}
\begin{pspicture}(0,0)(3,5)
\psline(0,0)(3,5)
\end{pspicture}
\end{document}
or
\documentclass[pstricks]{standalone}
\makeatletter
\def\sa@papersize{%
\global\let\sa@papersize\relax
\global\sa@yoffset=\paperheight
\global \setbox \@begindvibox
\vbox{%
\special{papersize=\the\paperwidth,\the\paperheight}%
\special{ps::%
\@percentchar\@percentchar HiResBoundingBox: 0 0 \the\paperwidth\space\the\paperheight^^J%
}%
\unvbox \@begindvibox }%
}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\begin{pspicture}(0,0)(5,4)
\psline(0,0)(5,4)
\end{pspicture}
\begin{pspicture}(0,0)(3,5)
\psline(0,0)(3,5)
\end{pspicture}
\end{document}
Use the option preview
as follows and you will get the expected result.
\documentclass[pstricks,preview]{standalone}
\begin{document}
\begin{pspicture}(0,0)(5,4)
\psline(0,0)(5,4)
\end{pspicture}
\end{document}
