NAME
       psselect	- select pages from a PostScript file

SYNOPSIS
       psselect	 [  -q ] [ -e ]	[ -o ] [ -r ] [	-ppages	] [ pages ] [ infile [
       outfile ] ]

DESCRIPTION
       Psselect	selects	pages from a PostScript	document, creating a new Post-
       Script file. The	input PostScript file should follow the	Adobe Document
       Structuring Conventions.

       The -e option selects all of the	even pages; it may be used in conjunc-
       tion with the other page	selection options to  select  the  even	 pages
       from a range of pages.

       The  -o option selects all of the odd pages; it may be used in conjunc-
       tion with the other page	selection options.

       The -ppages option specifies the	pages which are	to be selected.	 Pages
       is a comma separated list of page ranges, each of which may be  a  page
       number,	or  a  page range of the form first-last. If first is omitted,
       the first page is assumed, and if last is omitted, the last page	is as-
       sumed.

       The prefix character `_'	indicates that the page	number is relative  to
       the  end	 of  the  document, counting backwards.	If just	this character
       with no page number is used, a blank page will be inserted.

       The -r option causes psselect to	output the selected pages  in  reverse
       order.

       Psselect	 normally prints the page numbers of the pages rearranged; the
       -q option suppresses this.

       If any of the -r, -e, or	-o options are specified, the page range  must
       be  given  with the -p option. This is for backwards compatibility with
       previous	versions.

NOTES
       The page	number given to	psselect is the	number of  the	page  counting
       from  the  start	 or  end of the	file, starting at one. The actual page
       number in the document may be different.
