This is a somewhat different question.  The size of the finally
created portable document or postscript file is determined by the
width and height arguments when you start the respective device.  I
would just expand the size of the PDF/PS.  If you have a particular
aspect ratio you desire, then just be sure to expand height
proportionally when you add width to accommodate the labels.
