You want your PostScript "window" to have the same
aspect ratio as your graphics window, and you want
to position text in either data or (better) normalized
coordinates. You can find all kinds of useful tricks
and programs to help you build perfect PostScript
output files here:

You can find a number of programs to help you create
PostScript output, including my PSConfig program,
which puts all of these variables at your beck and
call via a graphical user interface, here:
