It may be, but I can't see how. The LAYOUT keyword works similarly
to !P.MULTI, but as far as I can tell it only works for
a single window.

If you want to create multi-page PS or PDF documents you will have
to create each page in a separate window, save to the appropriate
file type, and them concatenate the files/pages using SPAWN or something
similar.

Or use Old Graphics (direct graphics).

I would be happy to be corrected if this is wrong.
