I'd say you probably want to use something akin to the coverpage
machinery; you might modify it to build PostScript pages from your data
blocks.  The easiest way to do this will require some knowledge of PS
programming.

As long as you're not trying to do it to arbitrary pages, it is likely
to be much easier to build the print jobs by hand.  See also textfmt.
