[comp.lang.postscript] Landscape mode, two pages per sheet...

Thanks for all the help on my last question - now one more.

I have two landscape-oriented files to print.  Each one takes up one physical 
sheet.  I want to print both on one sheet, on the same side of the sheet.  
However, one of these files is translated to landscape mode by '90 rotate'
while the other uses '270 rotate'.  This means that when I print them out,
one always upside-down wrt the other.  Is there an easy way to rotate one of
these 180 degrees on the physical page so that both are right-side-up?  I don't
want to alter the exisiing files much if possible; I am using Unix and it 
would be easier to pipe one through some utility, use some lpr option or change
a layout file.
  Right now I am doing :
cat file1 file2 | lpr -Pps -h -N2

 I would prefer a solution in the form of a pipe - I have ~3000 pages to print
and manual changes to each file are not an option.
