I have a document that displays correctly under following combinations:
- Windows XP, Acrobat Reader 7.0.7
- Linux, Acrobat Reader 4.0

However, in my default environment, the page is stretched from it's normal portrait view to a landscape shape. The page is not modified otherwise. The first explanation I have is that I'm working dual screen and Reader scales wrongly due to the very large width of my screen.

The details:
Acrobat Reader: 7.0.1 07/27/2005 for Linux
O/S: Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 3 (Taroon Update 8)
Kernel: 2.4.21-32.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri Apr 15 21:17:59 EDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
