27       psbook  uses  pstops to rearrange pages from a PostScript document into
28       ‘signatures’ for printing books or booklets, creating a new  PostScript
29       file.   The  signature size is the number of sides which will be folded
30       and bound together; the number given should be a multiple of four.  Ex‐
31       tra  blank  sides will be added if the file does not contain a multiple
32       of four pages.

37       1      if arguments or options are incorrect, or there  is  some  other
38              problem starting up,
39
40       2      if  there  is some problem during processing, typically an error
41              reading or writing an input or output file.
