Correct problem with page(1) reported by Peter Cejchan, which turned out to be incorrect handling of (rare) PDF files with a CropBox inset within the MediaBox. The accompanying demo file croptest.ps (which I don't expect you to copy to sources) illustrates the effect: it prints text in four orientations, translated to each quadrant of the page - 16 pages in all. When translated with ps2pdf and viewed with page, the result should be cropped to the correct quadrant and displayed with text upright.
