[comp.laser-printers] Need help with troff macros and Postscript

joyce@isieng.UUCP (Joyce Perrelli) (07/23/87)

We are using some troff macros and Postscript (from Adobe Systems)
to print documents on our Apple LaserWriter. Our latest set of 
documents is done in the down-sized page format (6-1/4" by 8-1/2").  
Since this is user documentation, the LaserWriter copy will be 
used as the print master by a professional printing shop.  Does 
anyone have or know of a Postscript (or other) program that 
would allow us to print two pages at a time (landscape orientation) 
on sheets of 11" x 17" paper?  This would eliminate the need for 
the print shop to trim the pages in order to create their own 
master.  Having two pages of text would also allow us to cut 
our printing run in half, thereby saving some $$$.

If you can help, contact me by email or phone.

Thanks in advance.
