I find that if I use dvipdf with the following line in the source tex file;
\documentclass[a4paper, 12pt]{article}
that the resulting pdf page size is 'letter'.
See the following output from the pdfinfo programme;
Page size: 612 x 792 pts (letter)
I solve this problem with the following work around;
dvipdf -sPAPERSIZE=a4 foo.dvi
