As in taking a set of portrait slides and rotating them and combining
them on to a single page, without destorying hyperlinks.

I've taken the plunge and converted the seminar.cls I have to use to
not use pdflatex but plain LaTeX --- and can now use pstops and ps2pdf,
which preserves hyperlinks.

There's a java program `pax-tds' available from CTAN that is supposed
to be able to extract hyperlinks and put them back in, but it seems
underdocumented (i.e., I couldn't work out quickly how to use it with
pdfnup t preserve hyperlinks)
