Sorry, I don't see what you mean :-?

I simply used a fixed string that happens to be "page 9", and I don't 
understand why "page" prints, but "9" goes missing. Maybe you mean the "no 
spaces" thing? The spaces in the string confuses it? It seems a very crude 
thing...

Anyway, I made a script to print a page range with page numbers.

Mmm...


I don't think I bumped into that one. Anyway, my printer is an inkjet, not 
ps.

You mention:

| For number-up printing use the CUPS options and not the psutils,
| see the "CUPS Software Users Manual": "Document Options".

However, when browsing cups, the interface has changed, and I can't locate
that section - not even using the search feature:
