That's long been the standard for postscript plots in the default
landscape mode.  The only way they will fit on paper is to rotate them so
the shorter y axis corresponds to the shorter width of the page so PLplot
does that rotation by default. Postscript
viewers should know all about portrait versus landscape.  For gv, try the
landscape option to view the default landscape PLplot postscript plots
correctly.

If you actually do want to make a portrait plot (where x is the short axis
aligned with the short edge of the paper) with the postscript devices, use
the -portrait command-line option for your PLplot python script, then use
the gv portrait option to view it.
