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 Post-
     Script file should follow the Adobe Document Structuring Conventions.

     The -s option selects the size of signature which will be used. The  signa-
     ture  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 op-
     tion suppresses this.
