pdfbook rearranges pages from a PDF document into “signatures”
for printing books or booklets, creating a new PDF file.
This is much like psbook does for Postscript files, but working
with PDF. Indeed pdfbook was inspired by psbook.
For more information please refer to the manpage or visit
the project homepage.
