I am printing thousands of individual .PS files daily and am trying to figure out how to concatenate a job consisting of 300+ pages into a single .PS file with many pages...Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

I noticed you didn't receive a reply to this.

The basic technique to use is to contstruct a "shell" PostScript program that uses the "run" operator to run all of your other PostScript files.

I use this technique to run several postscript files into a single PDF document.
 
This can be done by copying all the postscript files to a text editor in the order you want them and add the line

false 0 startjob pop

in between each ps file.

But this may be alright for a few files but if you're trying to combine a few hundred it maybe a little tedious!
