Our Sun Transcript package comes with a program called psrev, which
will supposedly "select or reverse page order of a postscript file".

This program was going to come in handy when we needed to print out an
excerpt from a 300 page GNU Emacs manual.
 
Our problem is that psrev will not work on just any old postscript
file, but only on ones generated by other Transcript utilities, such
as pscat.

Does anyone out there know how to either:
	make modifications to a vanilla postscript file to make it
	digestable by psrev,
or,
	know of a p.d. program that will more or less do the same thing
	as psrev?

btw- the Sun "answerline" basically told me "tough luck".
