I tried dvipdfm and dvips manually.  I didn't know about texsetup.

Any way the problem is mostly mine.  I did have trouble with the 
documentation between different versions and paper/bookpaper/layout.  
With 2.3.21 I believe the doc's said paper but Lily complained and made 
me change to bookpaper which works for now.

The doc's imply that setpapersize and set-default-paper-size change 
paper size but it seems I also have to change at least hsize and vsize.

Thanks,
