=head1 NAME

pdftool.pl - a swiss army knife for PDF documents

=head1 SYNOPSIS

B<pdftool.pl> [B<-w> I<width> ] [B<-h> I<height>] [B<-p> I<paper>]
[B<-W> I<width>] [B<-H> I<height>] [B<-P> I<paper>] [B<-s> I<pages>]
[B<-m> I<margin>] [B<-b> I<border>] [B<-c>] [B<--book>] [B<--column>]
[B<-n> I<num>] [B<--auto-rotate>] [B<--ps>] [B<-q>] [I<infile> [I<outfile>]]

=head1 DESCRIPTION

B<PDFTool> combines the tools in the PSUtils bundle in a nice way. The
input should be either a Portable Document Format (PDF) file, or a
PostScript file.

If no input file is given, or if a single hyphen-minus (I<->) is given as
file name, B<PDFTool> reads the PDF or PostScript data from the standard
input. In a PDF is sent to the standard input, an auxiliary file is
created (because reading a PDF requires random access to the data), and removed
afterwards. Also, if the option B<-c> (cropping) is set while the input is
not a regular seekable file, an auxiliary file is created, and removed
afterwards.

The input page size is by default guessed from the input document. However,
the options B<-P>, B<-W> and B<-H> let you choose a specific input page
size, while B<-c> makes B<PDFTool> ignore the input page size and
calculate the minimal bouding box instead. The default output page size
is I<a4>.

If no output file is given, or if a single hyphen-minus (I<->) is given as
file name, B<PDFTool> sends the data to the standard output. By
default, B<PDFTool> outputs a PDF document; see B<--ps> to
get a PostScript instead.

B<PDFTool> does the following passes on the input document:

=over 4

=item *

Convert from PDF to PostScript if necessary (if possible,
that is if all page numbers are relative to the begining of the
document, convert only the smallest interval that contains all the selected
pages),

=item *

Select the page range if necessary (option B<-s>),

=item *

Calculate the minimal bounding box (option B<-c>),

=item *

Rearrange pages for printing books or booklets if necessary
(option B<--book>),

=item *

Put multiple pages per sheets (option B<-n>), and

=item *

"Flatten" the output, and convert it to PDF (if the flag B<--ps> is not set).

=back

=head1 OPTIONS

=over 8

=item B<-s> I<pages>, B<--select=>I<pages>

Specify the pages which are to be selected.
I<Pages> is a comma separated list of page ranges, each of which
may be a page number, or a page range of the form
I<first>-I<last>. If I<first> is omitted, the first page is assumed,
and if I<last> is omitted, the last page is assumed.

The prefix character `_' indicates that the page number is relative
to the end of the document, counting backwards. If just this
character with no page number is used, a blank page will be inserted.

=item B<-w> I<length>, B<--width=>I<length>

Specify the width of the output file. If the height is not specified as
well, it will be ignored. The known units are I<pt>, I<in>, I<cm> and
I<mm>. The default unit is I<pt>.

=item B<-h> I<length>, B<--height=>I<length>

Specify the height of the output file. If the width is not specified as
well, it will be ignored. The known units are I<pt>, I<in>, I<cm> and
I<mm>. The default unit is I<pt>.

=item B<-p> I<paper>, B<--paper=>I<paper>

Specify the paper size of the output file, as an alternative to B<-w>
and B<-h>. Can be set to I<a0>, I<a1>, I<a2>, I<a3>, I<a4>, I<a5>, I<b5>,
I<letter>, I<legal>, I<ledger>, I<tabloid>, I<statement>, I<executive>,
I<folio>, I<quarto>, or I<10x14>. The default output paper size is I<a4>.

=item B<-W> I<length>, B<--Width=>I<length>

Same as the option B<-w>, but for the input file. This option is ignored if
the option B<-c> (cropping) is set.

=item B<-H> I<length>, B<--Height=>I<length>

Same as the option B<-h>, but for the input file. This option is ignored if
the option B<-c> (cropping) is set.

=item B<-P> I<paper>, B<--Paper=>I<paper>

Same as the option B<-p>, but for the input file. By default,
B<PDFTool> will try to guess this value from the header of the file,
and will fail if the information is missing. This option is ignored if the
option B<-c> (cropping) is set.

=item B<-b> I<length>, B<--border=>I<length>

Add a margin around each logical page on a sheet. Possible units are I<pt>,
I<in>, I<cm> and I<mm>. The default unit is I<pt>. The default border is
I<1cm> if the option B<-c> (cropping) is set, and I<0> otherwise.

=item B<-m> I<length>, B<--margin=>I<length>

Add a margin around the whole page. Possible units are I<pt>, I<in>, I<cm>
and I<mm>. The default unit is I<pt>. The default margin is I<0>.

=item B<-c>, B<--crop>

If this option is set, the PostScript code will interpreted to calculate the
maximal effective bounding box. This operation may take time and be quite
demanding for the CPU. See the note for the option B<-b> above.

=item B<--book>

Rearrange pages for printing books or booklets.

=item B<-n> I<num>, B<--nup=>I<num>

Put multiple logical pages onto each physical sheet of paper.
If I<num> is less than 10, the option B<->I<num> may be used as an
alternative.

=item B<--auto-rotate>

Auto-rotate the pages in order to ensure that your document will be
printable using your favorite duplex mode for portrait documents (e.g.,
C<Tumble> if you prefer to turn the pages like those of a book -
"vertical folding"; regardless of the orientation of the document).
It has no effect if the input is a portrait document.
This flag might not be suitable if you plan to read the output document
on your screen.

=item B<--ps>

By default, B<PDFTool> outputs a PDF document; use this flag if
you want a PostScript instead.
Note that due to a L<known limitation|http://www.ghostscript.com/doc/current/Issues.htm#Known_Limitations> of C<gs> with
the C<pswrite> device, the PostScript output might not be suitable for uses other than printing.


=item B<--column>

Change the order to "column-major", where successive pages are placed in
columns down the paper.

=item B<-q>, B<--quiet>

B<PDFTool> normally prints the page numbers of the pages output; this
option suppresses this.

=item B<--help>

Display a brief help.

=item B<--version>

Display the version number of the B<PDFTool> program.

=item B<--man>

Display the manual page.

=back

=head1 EXAMPLES

The following comand can be used to remotely crop a PDF file, convert it
to A4 paper, and rearrange the pages to locally print a (PostScript)
booklet with custom margins:

C<< ssh remote pdftool.pl -cpA4 --book -2 -b2cm -m-1cm --auto-rotate < in.pdf | 
    lpr -o Duplex=DumplexTumble >>

=head1 REQUIREMENTS

=over 4

=item *

Requires C<pdftops> available via the command line (only if the input is
