NAME
pdfjam - A shell script for manipulating PDF files
SYNOPSIS
pdfjam [OPTION [OPTION] ...] [SRC [PAGESPEC] [SRC [PAGESPEC]] ...]
DESCRIPTION
pdfjam provides a front end to most capabilities of the "pdfpages"
package (by Andreas Matthias) of pdflatex. Detailed information can be
found via "pdfjam --help", and also in the web page mentioned below .
A working installation of pdflatex, with the pdfpages package, is re-
quired.
The pdfjam script is distributed as (the main) part of the pdfjam pack-
age. The homepage of pdfjam is at https://github.com/DavidFirth/pdfjam
.
SETUP
See https://github.com/DavidFirth/pdfjam
CONFIGURATION FILES
Configuration of the PDFjam utilities involves specifying the location
of pdflatex, the location of temporary files, specification of default
page size, etc. This is done in a block of lines near the top of the
pdfjam script; settings made there are over-ridden by any that are
found at a site-wide configuration file (at /etc/pdfjam.conf,
/usr/share/etc/pdfjam.conf, /usr/local/share/pdfjam.conf, or /usr/lo-
cal/etc/pdfjam.conf), which in turn are over-ridden by any that are
found in a user-defaults file at ~/.pdfjam.conf.
LIMITATIONS AND BUGS
pdfjam does not work with encrypted PDF files, and does not preserve
hyperlinks.
Please report bugs! --- either at GitHub or by email, see
