12 Psbook rearranges pages from a PostScript document into ``signatures''
13 for printing books or booklets, creating a new PostScript file. The
14 input PostScript file should follow the Adobe Document Structuring Con‐
15 ventions.
16
17 The -s option selects the size of signature which will be used. The
18 signature size is the number of sides which will be folded and bound
19 together; the number given should be a multiple of four. The default is
20 to use one signature for the whole file. Extra blank sides will be
21 added if the file does not contain a multiple of four pages.
22
23 Psbook normally prints the page numbers of the pages rearranged; the -q
24 option suppresses this.
