NAME
    psbook - rearrange pages in PostScript file into signatures

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 follow the Adobe Document Structuring Con-
    ventions.

    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 rearranged; the -q
    option suppresses this.
