fax2ps/tiff2ps puts short tiff at bottom of page



I have a problem when sending a few lines in a fax, which appears to
be a problem with fax2ps or tiff2ps on the receiving side.  The document
on the sending side (in the docq directory) look fine.

The cover page prints fine, but the second page (which is short, since is
only contains a few lines) is rendered at the bottom of the page instead
of at the top.

I am using "tiff2ps -pa1 $FILE" to generate the postscript file for
printing, and tests with fax2ps show that is does the same thing.

Does anyone know how to fix this, or encountered it before?
