pdfpun(1)pdfpun(1)NAMEpdfpun - n-up the pages of a pdf file, with right-to-left ordering
SYNOPSISpdfpun SRC [PAGESPEC] --outfile FILENAME [OPTION [OPTION] ...]
DESCRIPTIONpdfpun 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 work‐
ing 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.
