Does anyone have any ideas how to easily do this?  Ideally, I could get a
batch-style program that would splice in number images to specified
coordinates in an image.  Of course, that adds more steps anyway...

I know I replied on this already, but to augment what I said, you could make
your numbers _and_  your pictures transparent gif's, then simply place them
both on a suitable (ie, classic space sand - okay, enough of that)
background image.  With any luck, the web version and the printable version
could be one in the same.  The scans at brickshelf work just fine as being
printable or for just browsing.  Yours would just be "synthetic" instruction
scans.

It'd be kind of cool to see just how close you could get it to look like
real classic space instructions.  Okay, really, no more classic space
plugging.  I'll stop now.
