-.SH "NAME"
-pdfbook \- put the pages of PDF files into 2-up signatures
-.SH "SYNOPSIS"
-.PP
-pdfbook [--short-edge] [OPTION [OPTION] \&.\&.\&.] [SRC [PAGESPEC] [SRC [PAGESPEC]] \&.\&.\&.]
-.PP
-.SH "DESCRIPTION"
-.PP
-pdfbook makes 2-up versions of PDF files, with the pages ordered as
-signatures. The default signature size is 4: to change this, use the
-option '--signature N', where N is a multiple of 4 (alternatively use '--signature* N' for
-right-edge binding).
-.PP
-The default is to make pages suitable for long-edge binding. For short-edge
-binding, use '--short-edge' as the first argument; this will only work if the LaTeX package 'everyshi' is installed.
-.PP
-The default output page orientation is
-landscape. To change this, use the '--no-landscape' option.
-.PP
-By default, the option '--booklet true' is used (see the pdfpages manual
-for details). To turn this off, just specify '--booklet false'.
-.PP
-If no source PDF file ('SRC') is specified, input
-is from /dev/stdin. If 'PAGESPEC' is omitted, all pages are processed.
-.PP
-Source files are processed sequentially into a single output
-unless the '--batch' option is used, in which case they are processed
-separately.
-.PP
-pdfbook is a simple wrapper for pdfjam, which provides a front end to
-many of the capabilities of the pdfpages
-package for pdflatex\&. A working installation of pdflatex, with
-the pdfpages package, is required\&.
-.PP
-pdfbook operates on one or more PDF files, and (either with the '--batch'
-option or with '--outfile DIR' where 'DIR' is a directory) the
-resulting files have
-the suffix '-book' applied to their names by default. To change the suffix,
-use the '--suffix' option, for example
-.PP
-.RS
-.B pdfbook --suffix 'sig4' --batch myfile1.pdf myfile2.pdf
-.RE
-.PP
-will result in files named 'myfile1-sig4.pdf' and 'myfile2-sig4.pdf'.
