It has been years since I used dvips, so I don't remember how to correct
that. Basically, the "bug" is with the following file:
\starttext
\startTEXpage
What will happen now
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
Process using "mtxrun --script test --dvips" and then "ps2pdf" and the
resulting pdf file has the wrong bounding box.
The file processes correctly (but in landscape orientation) when using
pstopdf, so it is just a bug of ps2pdf.
The header of the ps file is:
%!PS-Adobe-2.0

Why is dvips adding Orientation: Landscape in the header?
