-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.I Pstops
-rearranges pages from a PostScript document, creating a new PostScript file.
-The input PostScript file should follow the Adobe Document Structuring
-Conventions.
-.I Pstops
-can be used to perform a large number of arbitrary re-arrangements of
-Documents, including arranging for printing 2-up, 4-up, booklets, reversing,
-selecting front or back sides of documents, scaling, etc.
-.PP
-.I pagespecs
-follow the syntax:
-.RS
-.TP 12
-.I pagespecs
-.I = [modulo:]specs
-.TP
-.I specs
-.I = spec[+specs][,specs]
-.TP
-.I spec
-.I = [-]pageno[L][R][U][H][V][@scale][(xoff,yoff)]
-.RE
-.sp
-.I modulo
-is the number of pages in each block. The value of
-.I modulo
-should be greater than 0; the default value is 1.
-.I specs
-are the page specifications for the pages in each block. The value of the
-.I pageno
-in each
-.I spec
-should be between 0 (for the first page in the block) and \fImodulo\fR-1
-(for the last page in each block) inclusive.
-The optional dimensions
-.I xoff
-and
-.I yoff
-shift the page by the specified amount.
-.I xoff
-and
-.I yoff
-are in PostScript's points, but may be followed by the units
-.B "cm"
-or
-.B "in"
-to convert to centimetres or inches, or the flag
-.B "w"
-or
-.B "h"
-to specify as a multiple of the width or height.
-The optional parameters \fIL\fR, \fIR\fR, \fIU\fR, \fIH\fR and \fIV\fR
-rotate the page left, right, or upside-down, and flip (mirror) page
-horizontally or vertically.
-The optional
-.I scale
-parameter scales the page by the fraction specified.
-If the optional minus sign is specified, the page is relative to the end of
-the document, instead of the start.
-
-If page \fIspec\fRs are separated by
-.B \+
-the pages will be merged into one page; if they are separated by
-.B ,
-they will be on separate pages.
-If there is only one page specification, with
-.I pageno
-zero, the \fIpageno\fR may be omitted.
-
-The shift, rotation, and scaling are applied
-to the PostScript transformation matrix
-in that order regardless of which order
-they appear on the command line.
-The matrix accumulates the individual transformations.
-The effect on the image is to first scale with respect to an origin
-at the lower left corner, then rotate about the same origin, and
-finally shift.
-.PP
-The
-.I \-w
-option gives the width which is used by the
-.B "w"
-dimension specifier, and the
-.I \-h
-option gives the height which is used by the
-.B "h"
-dimension specifier. These dimensions are also used (after scaling) to set the
-clipping path for each page.
-The
-.I \-p
-.PP
-The
-.I \-b
-option prevents any
-.B bind
-operators in the PostScript prolog from binding. This may be needed in cases
-where complex multi-page re-arrangements are being done.
-.PP
-The
-.I \-d
-option draws a line around the border of each page, of the specified width.
-If the \fIlwidth\fR parameter is omitted, a default linewidth of 1 point is
-assumed. The linewidth is relative to the original page dimensions,
-\fIi.e.\fR it is scaled up or down with the rest of the page.
-.PP
-Pstops normally prints the page numbers of the pages re-arranged; the
-.I \-q
-option suppresses this.
-.SH EXAMPLES
-This section contains some sample re-arrangements. To put two pages on one
-sheet (of A4 paper), the pagespec to use is:
-.sp
-.ce
-"2:0L@.7(21cm,0)+1L@.7(21cm,14.85cm)"
-.sp
-To select all of the odd pages in reverse order, use:
-.sp
-.ce
-2:-0
-.sp
-To re-arrange pages for printing 2-up booklets, use
-.sp
-.ce
-"4:-3L@.7(21cm,0)+0L@.7(21cm,14.85cm)"
-.sp
-for the front sides, and
-.sp
-.ce
-"4:1L@.7(21cm,0)+-2L@.7(21cm,14.85cm)"
-.sp
-for the reverse sides (or join them with a comma for duplex printing).
