Generate letter size PostScript from DVI
Friday, August 29, 2008.
After using latex to get an dvi file, you should run these
commands:
dvips -Ppdf -G0 myfile.dvi ps2pdf myfile.ps
If the generated pdf file has very small top margin, it means
dvips generated A4 size but you expected letter size. Thus you
should use dvips like this:
dvips -t letterSize -Ppdf -G0 myfile

epstopdf 90 rotate: a ghostscript bug
Friday, August 29, 2008.
The epstopdf command coming from your TeX distrubution can convert eps to pdf.
However, due to a bug in GhostScript, the image is rotated by 90 degrees
sometimes. Thus you should use this command to do the conversion. Of course
you want to replace my.eps and my.pdf with the file
name of your images.
egrep -v "^%%Orientation:" my.eps | epstopdf --filter --outfile=my.pdf
