When I generate a PDF through a "groff -Tps | ps2pdf" pipeline, the PDF's paper size comes out correct if I give groff the proper -P-p flag (passing the paper size along to grops) and set .pl and .ll appropriately within the groff file. That is, I don't tell ps2pdf the paper size; it picks this up automatically from groff's PostScript output. Does giving ps2pdf the -sPAPERSIZE option provide any extra functionality? Or are there situations where ps2pdf can't glean it from the input?
