Lots of déjà vu going on here. I'm sure I looked at psbook 15 or so years ago and rejected it for some reason in the quest that led me to the rather complex, dvi-based scheme I recently outlined. That scheme worked just fine until I got this 64-bit Win7 OS, and I'm sure would still work fine if I booted up the old laptop I replaced. But that being such a nuisance, for now my intent is to pursue the pstops route. One step I haven't yet worked out is a scheme for merging two separate postscript documents into one. I'd want to do that because I traditionally typeset the cover page separately, and I'd want to put it and possibly a blank page into the basic score document before doing the full-document imposition that pstops evidently can handle. Yes, I know I can include the TeX for the cover page into the PMX source as type 4 inline TeX, and I may end up taking that route.
