For converting to postscript: graphics/jpeg2ps-a4 or graphics/jpeg2ps-letter.
Multiple page on one sheet with psnup from print/psutils-a4 or
print/psutils-letter. 

If you are already using it, LaTeX would also do the trick quite nicely.
Especially with the Beamer class for nicely styled and formatted slides.
