I wrote a program I call "mpage" which reduces multiple pages
of print onto one page of output. It prints 1, 2, 4, and 8 pages per
sheet. It's public domain, free, and all you have to do is send mail
to me at:
uunet!pyrdc!mark
requesting a copy. "mpage" will also let you select the column width
and line heights of the pages so you can print those 153 column
spreadsheets.

100-up? Unfortunately mpage support only 8-up, I suppose I'd
have been inclined to do more but with 300dpi it didn't seem useful.
If you have any improvements, I would solicit them for inclusion in
future revisions.
