If you can find obtain a copy of ENSCRIPT, it sounds like exactly what you are 
looking for.  It converts text files into postscript and has many options so the
output is very nice.  You can print 2 pages to a page, page number, and many other
options.  It is available from Adobe Systems and is worth purchasing.
