This has nothing to do with postscript but with the transcript software
which tries probably to reverse the pages if it sees the first header.

If the file starts with '%!PS-Adobe-' (I don't remember exactly how much
of this string is needed), your transcript package assumes that it
receives a conforming postscript file with appropriate comments in it
(page boundaries etc.).
