PostScript does not care about "portrait" or "landscape". These facets are
often device-dependent. Device-dependent stuff has not been adressed yet in the
PostScript renderer. Of course, there is, for example, no "BoundingBox"
or "PageOrientation" generated in the DSC comments at the moment, so Viewers or
Printers may have problems deciding what paper to choose. If you can force the
output device to use landscape (ex. GhostView) then the document will be
displayed correctly.
For the device-dependent stuff I currently patch each PostScript file adding
some commands at the appropriate places that setup the output device (paper bin
etc.). Since PS renderer generates ASCII-type Postscript files and most DSC-
Comments, this is pretty simple and fast.
