7 If you know LaTeX, you could try writing a shellscript that prints a
8 LaTeX document that includes two images per page, run this through TeX
9 and print the resulting postscript. Or there might be something in the
10 netpbm package...untested:
11 ( for f in $*; do anytopnm $f; done ) | pnmtops -setpage=a4 | \
12 psnup -n 2 | lp
