Dear colleagues,

  I have a problem with printing a document in 2up style, i.e. two A4 
pages resized to A5 in landscape orientation on one A4 page.

I use `psutils', namely the combination:

   psbook doc.ps | psnup -2 > doc_2up.ps

  Everything works fine except that the output on a SUN SparcPrinter 
is very poor. The characters come out cribbled, e.g. you can't 
recognize the vertical bar of an `e' and so on.

  The PostScript file `doc.ps' has been produced by dvips (5.47) from 
an ordinary `doc.dvi' using 300dpi.

So here goes my question:

  What may be wrong ? How could I improve the resolution ? Should I 
get a newer dvips ? Or change the resolution to 400dpi ?  Is there any 
hidden feature in the `psutils'-code or even some better stuff to do 
that ?

Thanks for any help,
                    Thomas.
