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. +.PP +Dvibook normally prints the page numbers of the pages rearranged; the +.I \-q +option suppresses this. +.SH AUTHOR +Angus Duggan, from dviselect(1), by +Chris Torek, University of Maryland +.SH "SEE ALSO" +dviconcat(1), dviselect(1), latex(1), tex(1) +.br +.I "MC-TeX User's Guide" +.br +.I "The TeXbook" +.SH BUGS +.I Dvibook +does not adjust the parameters in the postamble; however, since these +values are normally used only to size certain structures in the output +conversion programs, and the parameters never need to be adjusted upward, +this has not proven to be a problem. |
