[comp.lang.postscript] 2-up .... n-up wanted

wcs@skep2.ATT.COM (Bill.Stewart.[ho95c]) (12/08/88)

A long time ago, before I had a Postscript printer, somebody posted a
program to print multiple reduced-size page images on each printed page.
(Dave Yost has even put out a manual in 100-up format on a hi-res
typesetter.)  Needless to say, I didn't save it, and can't find it in my
archives - does anybody have a copy?

	I wrote a program I call "mpage" which reduces multiple pages
of print onto one page of output.  It prints 1, 2, 4, and 8 pages per
sheet.  It's public domain, free, and all you have to do is send mail
to me at:
             uunet!pyrdc!mark
requesting a copy.  "mpage" will also let you select the column width
and line heights of the pages so you can print those 153 column
spreadsheets.

	100-up?  Unfortunately mpage support only 8-up, I suppose I'd
have been inclined to do more but with 300dpi it didn't seem useful.
If you have any improvements, I would solicit them for inclusion in
future revisions.
