NAME

       pdfpun - n-up the pages of a pdf file, with right-to-left ordering

SYNOPSIS

       pdfpun SRC [PAGESPEC] --outfile FILENAME [OPTION [OPTION] ...]

DESCRIPTION

       pdfpun converts a file in the Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) to a
       "n-up" PDF file, that is, with multiple input pages  per  output  page,
       for  more economical printing etc.  The pages are ordered right-to-left
       in the output.  The default processing is to 2-up landscape output with
       no  frame  around  pages,  equivalent  to  using the options ’--nup 2x1
       --landscape --frame false’.

       SRC must be a PDF file; ’/dev/stdin’ can be used for PDF  input  via  a
       pipeline.

       If  PAGESPEC  is omitted, all pages are processed (equivalent to ’-’ as
       PAGESPEC)

       OPTION is any option of pdfjam(1) other than --batch.

       pdfpun is a simple wrapper for pdfjam, which provides a  front  end  to
       many  of  the  capabilities  of  the  pdfpages package for pdflatex.  A
       working  installation  of  pdflatex,  with  the  pdfpages  package,  is
       required.

       pdfpun  is  part of the "PDFjam" package of tools, whose homepage is at
       http://www.warwick.ac.uk/go/pdfjam.
