Concerning the size problem: Welcome to the Wonderful World of Postscript! The fact that Postscript points and printers points don't match is a source of continual aggravation. If you're writing a Postscript program, it's fairly easy to compensate by rescaling the job by including the line 72 72.27 div 72 72.27 div scale which puts you into printer's measurement. I've also been able to drop that in an occasional Pagemaker and Adobe Illustrator 1.1 file by printing to disc first. However, it can cause serious problems in some jobs, so you might just want to work in inches rather than points when working in Quark.
