Hi all... I could not locate the mpage program under SuSE 7.1 ... Maybe there is another program for printing 2 or more pages of text on a single page of paper? Or maybe is part of a package that I don't install and not included in the description? Sound strange to me that a so rich distribution lacks a tool like mpage. Thank you all. P.S.: I've learned a lot from this lis.

The most elegant solution would be to print with:
lpr file1
If apsfilter detects that file1 is a text file, it uses a2ps by default
to convert the file into a postscript file, and passes it on to
Ghostscript.
The options for a2ps (2 or more pages on a sheet of paper, and much,
much more) should be set in /etc/apsfilterrc, or, even better, in
/etc/apsfilterrc.
