16Since Mup generates PostScript, almost any PostScript tool can be used
17on its output. In particular, the &quot;ps2pdf&quot; tool that comes with Ghostscript can
18convert Mup output to PDF format, and the &quot;ps2epsi&quot; tool, which also
19comes with Ghostscript, converts a PostScript file to an Encapsulated
20PostScript (EPS) file. Many text processing and graphics programs will
21let you import EPS files, so this can let you insert Mup output into
22some other document.

25There is a package called &quot;psutils&quot; available on most Linux archives,
26that contains various Postscript tools. These include &quot;psnup&quot; which lets
27you print multiple pages on one sheet of paper with more flexibility
28than Mup's
29<A HREF="param.html#panels">panelsperpage parameter,</A>
30and &quot;psselect&quot; which prints a subset of pages.
