xcf to pdf
#2
Welcome to gimp-forum.net

Problem - not many (any) OSX users here. However

What pixel dimensions is the poster in Gimp? Are they 'A' proportions 1: root(2)? The standard Gimp A3 template @ 300 ppi is 3508 x 4960 pix. If the height is a bit off then that would account for a border at the top. A quick test and that is what happens here in linux.

An alternative to ps2pdf might be ImageMagick. The Gimp file is bitmap anyway so export to png. This would produce a PDF to size

Code:
convert A3.png  -compress jpeg -resize 3508x4960 -units PixelsPerInch -density 150x150 poster.pdf

or whatever ppi value you desire. That will stretch the image and eliminate the 'border'
