rolling rectangular pizza dough -- suggestions?

I'm having a bit of difficulty getting my pizza doughs to roll out properly
to a rectangular shape for a rectangular piece of stoneware.  Anyone having
any magic tips/tricks/suggestions?  It wasn't a problem doing round pies on
rectangular stoneware until recently when I started adding thick portobello
mushrooms and more sauce -- so the dough needs to be thinner and cover more
area for that much topping-matter.  :)

The doughs I buy come round (not square :) in a pastic bag, and even when I
use a special 4"-wide pizza rolling pin and make rolling motions only to the
four corners, the dough still comes out fairly rounded.  It's very odd.
