Has anyone written (or is there available) a generic Postscript
filter which will convert a file into 2up wide printing
(i.e., print two pages on one, via reduction and 90 degree rotate)?

Ideally, a 4 up (portrait) would also be possible (maybe even just
by a recursive call!).

I manage printing 2up or 4up using WordPerfect, but it is not
fully automatic and leaves no hope for non-ascii or Wordperf files.

Heck, page sorting routines allowing two pass duplexing would also
be handy!

...Terry.
