Description: print multiple pages per sheet on PostScript printer
Mpage reads plain text files or PostScript documents and prints them on
a PostScript printer with the text reduced in size so that several
pages appear on one sheet of paper. This is useful for viewing large
printouts on a small amount of paper. Uses ISO 8859.1 to print 8-bit
characters.

Works great, feed it postscript and it crams it onto less pages :>
