27 Configuration of the PDFjam utilities involves specifying the location
28 of pdflatex, the location of temporary files, specification of default
29 page size, etc. This is done in a block of lines near the top of the
30 pdfjam script; settings made there are over-ridden by any that are
31 found at a site-wide configuration file (at /etc/pdfjam.conf,
32 /usr/share/etc/pdfjam.conf, /usr/local/share/pdfjam.conf, or
33 /usr/local/etc/pdfjam.conf), which in turn are over-ridden by any that
34 are found in a user-defaults file at ~/.pdfjam.conf.

37 pdfjam does not work with encrypted PDF files, and does not preserve
38 hyperlinks.
