The important thing is that copypage does not exist and there is NO
TRICK, no equivalent way to do the same thing without changing your
code significantly. 

Each page must be complete. You cannot carry information from one page
to the next.  

So, simply rewrite the pages to be generated in full both times.  As
an enhancement, look at PostScript forms. These are nothing magic -
just a way of cacheing the results of a procedure.  You can't use
forms until you have rewritten into separate pages.
