    I find that dvips--> ps2pdf output seems to /raise/ the text slightly
     relative to the paper (reducing the top white space) 
     when compared to using pdfTeX (which copies exactly the dvips output)
    why is this?? 

Not to ask the obvious, but do you have dvips configured for the right
paper size?
