Right side cut off? That sounds like the resulting file is sized at A4, 
and being clipped to US Letter. Try using an option to force the .dvi 
conversion to use US Letter paper size. For instance, the command I use 
in Linux looks like:

latex file.tex && dvips -t a4 file.dvi && ps2pdf file.ps && acroread 
file.pdf

Hope this helps,
Clint
