Postscript utilities for two-up printing, bbox, etc

A set of utilities for manipulating DSC compliant postscript. The following programs are included:

impose: A preprocessor to pstops for creating 2-up printouts. It tries to remove white space from the printout by probing the original postscript for the printed area's bounding box. This makes the output more esthetic than a simplistic layout of non-cropped original pages.

bboxx: Extracts the bounding boxes of a postscript file, with the option of entering the bounding box into the file. This program uses the ghostscript bbox device.

fixtd: Sets options in a Postscript file asking the printer to turn on tumbling or duplex printing.

psbl: Rearranges pages in a file to create booklets.
