Yes, but that device is deprecated.  It would be better to use 
the "display" device, or if all you want is a single page 
bitmap, to use the bmp16m or pngalpha devices.

The technique used by GSview is to use setpagedevice to set the 
pagesize and orientation as appropriate.

A better mailing list would probably have been bug-gswin or gs-
devel.
