At the moment I use Image Magick to generate pictures for quotes. For
example:
    https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=391593267579727

This is fairly easy. But I was thinking about doing it with
postscript. But then I have define the size of the output and this is
depending on the input. Is there a way to solve this?
