I found a solution. Use the epstopdf. It will preserve the size.

Yes, it is actually a ps file. I used ps2pdf to convert it to pdf, but the page size becomes something like A4. My original file has size 4x3, so that I can have a full screen presentation. Do you know any good options that can force ps2pdf to preserve the size or set the size explicitly?

The pstools are absolutely rotten about preserving paper size, but I believe that they let you specify the paper size on output, so that may help if all pages are the same size.

Otherwise, use "gv" to view the .ps file and then print it to a CUPS PDF printer (maybe using "xpp" as your print command which also helps).

   I guess you run into the postscript bug, like me. Check if it
   really is a PDF or a PostScript File.
   AFAIK there is no patch yet.
