Hi Bob,

If you remove groffer from the equation, and produce PDF, does that look
correct when you then open the PDF in a viewer?

    groff -P-l -t bob.tr | ps2pdf - bob.pdf

gxditview here, I've an old version, doesn't take options or resources
to define the paper size AFAICS, so it can't be told it's landscape.
Its man page says

    The paperlength and paperwidth commands in the DESC file specify the
    length and width in machine units of the virtual page displayed by
    gxditview.

The files here, e.g. font/devX100-12/DESC, don't have those commands.
Perhaps adding them with landscape dimensions will make it work.  You
could copy, e.g. devX100-12 to devX100-12-l.

Cheers, Ralph.
