Good question. I don't see any way of setting the paper size, except within the print dialogue. I have the print dialogue set to Acrobat Distiller (A4 paper size) by default, altho' in this instance I'm printing to file.

I was going to say, what is the paper size of the final program. 2cm being cropped from the top, does that imply a 2cm gap at the bottom (i.e. a shift), or is the final paper size 2cm smaller than the size of what you're printing.

I would expect the final program, the one that is losing the 2cm, lets you set a page size.

A windows PostScript printer driver typically puts out its own header information, I guess that includes the paper size. If you select "generic PostScript" then this header is dispensed with, you just get the pure PostScript from Ovation Pro and nothing else.
