12 pdfpun converts a file in the Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) to a
13 "n-up" PDF file, that is, with multiple input pages per output page,
14 for more economical printing etc. The pages are ordered right-to-left
15 in the output. The default processing is to 2-up landscape output with
16 no frame around pages, equivalent to using the options '--nup 2x1
17 --landscape --frame false'.
