this problem is a commonplace of comp.text.tex (and no doubt also
de.comp.text.tex); its solution appears as an answer in the uk faq

http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=charshift

and no doubt also the german one.

perhaps you're forbidden from using any but email over the net?

try either:

 - dvips -Pwww -G0
 - dvips -Ppdf
 - or current (as on tex live 7 or in the latest tetex beta) dvips
