The output of gdalinfo on your source image file as well as your command
line invocation of gdal_translate would be useful in determining your
problem.

What are georeferenced coordinates? I can't find a definition in any of
the 
GDAL documents. I would guess they are longitude and latitude.

I'm trying to use the "-projwin" option for gdal_translate with valid
longitude 
and latitude. But this always fails saying they are outside the bounds
of the 
input image. "-srcwin" works as expected.

"gdal_translate --version" yields "GDAL 1.4.2.0, released 2007/06/27".
I'm 
using a Redhat Fedora Core 5 system.

TIA!
Kent
