   Also: is there a way to use \special in LaTeX to force multi.ps to
   be included _before_ TeXDict?

This depends on your dvi to postscript program.  With the one I use
(Tom Rokicki's dvips) you can say "-h file" to include a header file.

However, are you sure you want to do this?  All the 300 dpi bitmapped
fonts that dvips downloads will be scaled to a smaller size.  This
will be slow and look bad.  Better to do the multiple logical pages
per physical pages within LaTeX by modifying the \output macro and
using \mag to make things smaller.

I usually put 2 A5 pages on an A4 sheet like this:

% twoup.sty
% set width and height for two column A4 page in landscape mode
\twocolumn
\flushbottom
\textwidth 700pt
\textheight 430pt
\columnsep 36pt
\hoffset=-28mm
\voffset=-20mm
\special{landscape} %this only works if your dvips understands it
