Please note that this command should produce a dvi file
with the page layout suited for letter size papers. 
You still have to tell dvips explicitly that you want
a non-default paper size by 'dvips -t letter' (another
possibility is to let ly2dvi call dvips: 'ly2dvi -P --set=...'.

This is exactly the same procedure as for any LaTeX document, 
but is a bit confusing at first.
