I have a ps-file, that (should, I don't know how) be shown well on windows, but on Mac OS the landscape format is to small. A part on the right site is cutted off. I have no idea how to fix this. Can someone here help me please? You can download the file here: <http://www.familienbande-genealogie.de/Test/Ahn_Tafel7.ps> Greatings from germany, Stefan Mettenbrink. (Sorry for my bad english)

The default page size pstopdf uses seems to be US Letter in portrait orientation. You should modify your PostScript setup to generate a correct setpagedevice statement for e.g. A4 landscape format to ensure that the resulting PDF is correct. By the way, the gv utility (not standard on Mac OS X but on Linux) dieplays the file correctly. Helge
