Incidentally, if you're willing to use PS, you need the psutils
package (I forget where it is, but dig it out). A quote from the pstops (ps
to ps) man page:
Pstops rearranges pages from a PostScript document, creat<AD>
ing a new PostScript file. The input PostScript file
should follow the Adobe Document Structuring Conventions.
Pstops can be used to perform a large number of arbitrary
re-arrangements of Documents, including arranging for
printing 2-up, 4-up, booklets, reversing, selecting front
or back sides of documents, scaling, etc.
There are various other PS utils, but these seem to do most
things. I'd also recommend ghostview (or something equivalent; it's a
graphical PS viewer) to those who don't have it.
Hope this is useful :).
