These packages look possibly relevant:

document.
layouts Display various elements of a document's layout.
leaflet Create small, single page handouts.
magaz Magazine layout.
maple Styles and examples for the MAPLE newsletter.
newsletr Macros for making newsletters.

rmpage A package to help change page layout parameters in LaTeX.
