I want to translate postscript files for printing two on one page.
psf only works for non-postscript input. mp places headers and footers,
but doesn't rotate and reduce. Is there any tool to manage this?

What I want is:

Input:

     +--------------+     +--------------+
     |              |     |              |
     |              |     |              |
     |              |     |              |
     |              |     |              |
     |              |     |              |
     |  postscript  |     |  postscript  |
     |    page 1    |     |    page 2    |
     |              |     |              |
     |              |     |              |
     |              |     |              |
     |              |     |              |
     |              |     |              |
     +--------------+     +--------------+

Output:

            +---------------------+
            |          |          |
            |          |          |
            |          |          |
            |    ps    |    ps    |
            |  page 1  |  page 2  |
            |          |          |
            |          |          |
            |          |          |
            +---------------------+
