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 PostScript file should follow
     the Adobe Document Structuring Conventions.

     The -s option selects the size of signature  which  will  be
     used.  The  signature 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 rear-
     ranged; the -q option suppresses this.
