We do this routinely with ArborText's dvips. You do have to read the
manual to discover this option. My shell script lets users type just
"ptex -2r <file>" to get this.

!? I didn't. dvips handles the scaling, but complains repeatedly about
the resulting imperfections. We don't complain about the compact output.
