Hi everyone, I was asked how to print several Postscript pages on one page. For this there exists a little tool called "pstops". Unfortuanatly it is not installed on the workstations. But you can find it in my homedirectory. make a copy with the command cp /s/chopin/a/grad/koepping/bin/pstops <your destination> (this is a SUN binary!) I also have written two common applications of it, copy them with cp /s/chopin/a/grad/koepping/bin/ps2on1 <your destination> cp /s/chopin/a/grad/koepping/bin/ps4on1 <your destination> These two scripts put 2 or 4 pages on one page. The utility does not work always, so before printing a converted document, view it with ghostview (gv). Copy the manpage to pstops with cp /s/chopin/a/grad/koepping/pstops.1 <your destination> Thats it. Save pages! Uli
