[pdftex] teteX on macosx: /Rotate fixed?

[ch]

hello,
i used to work with the teteX implementation of pdflatex (i guess 14h)
provided by gerben wierda for the mac os x platform. pdf pictures
rotated in acrobat did not show up rotated in the output as the /Rotate
pdf command was not honored.

i read in this newsgroup that a fix to this problem was provided in may.
so, i downloaded the latest teteX (pretest 20010806, released 11/01).
the rotation is now handeled correctly, however the baseline of the
picture is now shifted half an inch downwards, so the picture partially
OVERLIES the CAPTION TEXT.

is this another bug, is there a way to fix it without waiting for a new
build of teteX.

ps, is there any useful tool in os x that allows rotating and cropping
of pdf files? acrobat is not very stable, graphicsconverter does not
support pdf ...

many thanks,

ch
