Hi Michelle

    There was a PostScript program called 'poster' which came with the
original PostScript 'Blue Book' of recipes. You prepended this to the
beginning of your file and it did the scaling, translating and
cropping etc.

The code for 'poster', as well as other blue book examples, seems to
be available here:
