I subsequently found out that the page reversal performed on the Sun happened
via the options file associated with transcript software. My thanks to those
who replied:

dennett@acadia.Kodak.COM (Charlie Dennett) (right in my own front yard!)
chungj@gnp.com (Jae Chung)
stern@sunne.East.Sun.COM (Hal Stern - NE Area Systems Engineer)
I have since found out that transcript is an Adobe product, and that people are
successfully using it in the Ultrix (DECstation) operating system. I will be
contacting Adobe to purchase this software for our DECstation.
