	The documents are physics preprint papers from www.arxiv.org, so they usually 
come from latex, and the sources are available.
	I use 'psnup -2' to get two pages on each side of a sheet of paper (four 
pages per sheet), thus getting lots of whitespace between the two columns of 
text. So even if could if find a way to enlarge the original ps file, the 
psnup command will give even more whitespace in the middle of the page
	It would be cool if there was a simple postscript command that could scale up 
the content of the pages (and not the pagesize), but I don't think I will 
bother if it necessary to modify the latex source and reprocess.
