Some additional hints for the debugging: The page handling works well as long as you don't use the flag -h psfonts, so there's something fishy going on in that file.
At least on my system, the PS file does indeed contain %%Page: comments, both with and without -h psfonts, so it seems that that's not the problem.

Hi,
Using lp-book with current CVS checkout to generate a postscript file. The file prints OK but it contains no %%Pages or %%Page comments so page movement is disabled in gv.
There appear to be dvips options to turn off structured comments but none to turn them on. In the dvips documentation I came across:
Using `bop-hook' or `eop-hook' to preserve information across pages breaks compliance with the Adobe document structuring conventions, so if you use any such tricks, you may also want to use the `-N' option to turn off structured comments (such as `%%Page'). Otherwise, programs that read your file will assume its pages are independent.
Looking in the final ps file I found these macros are indeed used. I would like to investigate further as I believe a lot of GNU/Linux users do use gv to preview postscript. Does anyone know the anwers to the following:
1] Where do they come from? (They are not in the fonts.ps file)
2] Are they used to preserve information across pages?
3] If the answer to [2] is "No", why are structured comments turned off?
4] If the answer to [2] is "Yes", is this really necessary?
5] How have structured comments been turned off? - The documentation implies you need to use the -N or -K options to do this.
