You have to add a line like (for example)
0.5 0.5 scale
at the right place to get a picture which is (for example) half the original size.

If the file is generated by a program, it is not unusually long. Programs often/always make
long headers with useful definitions, procedures and so on, even when you just want to draw
one line.
If you have problems with the scaling, you can email the file to me, tell me exactly what you
want to get and I'll try to make it happen...
