That's exactly what I was missing! The command dvidvi -m 2:0(-0.35in,-0.25in),1(4.65in,-0.25in) old.dvi new.dvi works perfectly. I simply reformatted the document using the parameters given in twoup.sty, got rid of the 11pt documentstyle I was using before, and ran dvidvi on the resulting .dvi file spit out by OzTeX. The only problem is that OzTeX doesn't recognize any .dvi file other than its own, so I had to use resEdit to modify the file type. But that's a minor inconven- ience I can certainly live with. Thanks for your help! -- Tom Scavo scavo@cie.uoregon.edu
