|I don't know if there's a version of dvi2ps that does it, but once
|it's Postscript you can always use psxlate to print odd/even pages.

I believe Rokicki's dvidvi will separate odd/even pages. Angus Duggan's
psselect from psutils will do this at the PostScript level.

Finally, if you don't care for convention, you could do what I
sometimes do: print half of the pages, then put the paper back in for
the second half. You then read the pages in this sequence: all the
upward facing pages, then flip the entire document over and continue.
I actually find this easier to read than alternating between sides.

I don't know if there's a name for this collating mode, but it reminds
me of the 78 rpm record stacks (for those who are old enough to
remember 78 rpm or even records).
