NAME


pdfbook2 - transform pdf files into booklets for double-sided printing

SYNOPSIS


pdfbook2 [ options ] INPUT [ INPUT, ...]

DESCRIPTION


Create print-ready PDF files from some INPUT PDF files for booklet printing. The resulting
files need to be printed in landscape/long edge double sided printing. The default paper
format depends on the locale and is choosen by pdfjam. It can be set with the --paper
option.

Before the pdf is composed the INPUT file is cropped to the relevant area in order to
discard unnecessary white spaces. In this process, all pages are cropped to the same
dimensions. Extra margins can be defined at the edges of the booklet and in the middle
where the binding occurs.

The OUTPUT is written to INPUT-book.pdf. Existing files will be overwritten. All input
files are processed seperatly.

EXAMPLE


To simply create a booklet from input.pdf you can use

pdfbook2 input.pdf

to create input-book.pdf. To select a special type of paper you can do

pdfbook2 --paper=letter input.pdf

for letter or

pdfbook2 --paper=a4paper input.pdf

for standard A4. To increase the inner margin for binding use

pdfbook2 --inner-margin=200 input.pdf

to increase the default value of 150. You can submit multiple files to the script for
processing like

pdfbook2 input1.pdf input2.pdf

which will result in input1-book.pdf and input2-book.pdf.
