NAME
        psbook  -  rearrange  pages in PostScript file into signa­
        tures
 
SYNOPSIS
        psbook [ -q ] [ -ssignature ] [ infile [ outfile ] ]
 
DESCRIPTION
        Psbook rearranges pages from a  PostScript  document  into
        ``signatures''  for printing books or booklets, creating a
        new PostScript file. The input PostScript file should fol­
        low the Adobe Document Structuring Conventions.
 
        The  -s option selects the size of signature which will be
        used. The signature size is the number of sides which will
        be folded and bound together; the number given should be a
        multiple of four. The default is to use one signature  for
        the  whole  file.  Extra  blank sides will be added if the
        file does not contain a multiple of four pages.
 
        Psbook normally prints the page numbers of the pages rear­
        ranged; the -q option suppresses this.
