Lines: 12 Yes, I've hacked it to do something like this (I needed two up format in a similar but different way). In the postscript prolog (pscat.pro or psdit.pro) you can hack the macros that the formatter puts out to begin and output pages. In pscat.pro it's BP and EP, and in psdit.pro it looks a little more complicated PE, PB and p. What I did (for pscat) was to put a translate and scale in the BP macro (superseding what was already in there) that depended on a boolean that flipped on every page. In EP the boolean gets flipped and if you've done both halves of the page executes a showpage. -Ron
