The size and shape of the free volume in molecular crystals was estimated from crystallographic data. The o-Ps lifetime values were calculated from respective models and compared with the experimental data. The best agreement for channel-like voids has been obtained for the value of DR parameter equal 0.19 nm. The threshold value of radius allowing Ps trapping in the void was found to be (0.12-0.13) nm.
