I have a PDF document downloaded where the (landscape) pages are actually delivered as two pages per 'page'. Thus if you print it in the normal way you get two landscape pages across each sheet of paper.
Is it possible, relatively easily, to tell Acrobat Reader (or any of the alternatives) to print each 'page' of the downloaded PDF as two pages on the printer?
Possible: pdf2ps or pdftops, then psselect to resize and crop it.
Easily: probably not. The parameters to psselect are confusing and differ depending on the rotation and scaling of the original PDF. There might be some recipe out there but usually there isn't.
Hope that helps,
