That's what I do.  export->postscript, select multi-file.  I usually put 
them all in a subdirectory called 'checkplots' so that they don't 
clutter up the rest of the directory.  I have a simple generic shell 
script that consists of several lines of 'lpr -l *.front.ps' and so 
forth for the set that I most commonly use.  But I find that I often am 
only interested in one or two at a time, so the individual files output 
suits nicely.

While we're making wishes... I wish the export-postscript dialog would 
remember my settings so I didn't have to click the same ones every time. 
Of course, I've been too lazy to recompile with my own set of defaults 
:)  But that is something I really should do.
