NAME
     psselect - select pages from a PostScript file

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

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  conjunction
     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 conjunction
     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 assumed.

     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  or-
     der.

     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.
