Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gv

The following PostScript program gets the size of the paper from the
PostScript environment, and prints it.

%!PS
/pt2cm { .0353 mul (aaaaaaaaaa) cvs } def 
/Helvetica findfont 14 scalefont setfont
30 30 moveto (PageSize: ) show currentpagedevice /PageSize get dup
0 get pt2cm show (cm x ) show 1 get pt2cm show (cm) show showpage

When ran with "gs -sDEVICE=x11", it gives a reasonable result:
  PageSize: 20.9927cm x 29.6954cm
On a real printer with A4 paper, it prints similar results.

When ran with gv, it displays nonsense:
  PageSize: 0.0044125cm x 0.0044125cm

** Affects: gv (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
