If one converts a file x.mp into pdf, e. g. a small file x.mp

beginfig(1) labeloffset:=0; label.urt("Hello", origin); endfig; end

by the command mptopdf, the lower part of the word "Hello" in the
resulting x-1.pdf file is missing, it's below the Bounding Box!

Reason for this is, that in mptopdf.tex, macro \processMPfile, the
\topskip is not set to zero. I included a \topskip=0pt before the line
with \setbox0=..., and the resulting x-1.pdf now has the word "Hello"
within its bounding box, which I believe should be the correct behavior.
And also Acroread now shows the complete word.

Best Regards

Hartmut
