I would like to make a little booklet (actually, for addresses) out of
sheets of paper folded into eighths.  It seems that it ought to be
easy enought to write a postscript program that would take 16 normal
size pages (generated by TeX or something like that) and transform
them into 2 (front & back) pages; it would involve shrinking them,
turning them sideways (some left and some right), then moving them
into the correct positions on the two pages.

If anyone has a program that does anything similar, I would be most
interested in seeing it, since I'm going to have to learn all the
PostScript I need to write this.  Would you mail me a copy?  You can
also mail me if you're interested in seeing what I come up with.
