Have you tried changing the default margins in the SERVERDICT dictionary?
If you don't know how to do this, look in the "BLUE Book" which is one
of a two book set publishd by McCraw-Hill and written by ADOBE.

But basically, the idea is that you first get the printer into interactive
mode, by sending it the EXECUTIVE command.

It should respond with a prompt something like this.

Postcript (tm) version 23.0

You then have to give it a password in order to change the margins.
----> serverdict begin {your password} exitserver

It will respond with 
%%[exitserver:permanent state may be changed]%%

Finally you give the command to change the margins.
----> {top margin} {left margin} setmargins

Then 'log out' by typing
----> exit

Hope this helps.
