I remember trying to use pstops, which seemed to be broken. Geez,
look at these notes I have left over, no wonder I gave up.
pstops '2:[email protected](21cm,0)[email protected](21cm,14.85cm)' top.ps >collated.ps
pstops -plegal '2:[email protected](29cm,-2cm)[email protected](29cm,12.85cm)' 4.ps >4collated.ps
dvips -tlegal -D300 -pp 1-4,77-80 -Z -o 4.ps top.dvi
But xfig worked great. I made an xfig canvas which included two of
the encapsulated postscript pages that I had made, then saved that as
postscript. Then I did the same with two different postscript pages,
diffed the output file with the previous one, and split out everything
but the page content to get a postscript header and footer. Then I
made a shell script to paste the header & footer around each page
content to make all the sheets at once.
