NAME

       psmerge - filter to merge several PostScript files into one

SYNOPSIS

       psmerge [ -oout.ps ] file.ps ...

DESCRIPTION

       Psmerge	merges	PostScript  documents into a single document. It only works in the specific case the the files were created using the same
       application, with the same device setup and resources (fonts, procsets, patterns, files, etc) loaded.

       If the -o option is used, output will be sent to the file named, otherwise it will go to standard output.

       Psmerge will merge multiple files concatenated into a single file as if they were in separate files.

NAME

       psselect - select pages from a PostScript file

SYNOPSIS

       psselect [ -q ] [ -e ] [ -o ] [ -r ] [ -ppages ] [ pages ] [ infile [ outfile ] ]

DESCRIPTION

       Psselect  selects pages from a PostScript document, creating a new PostScript file. The input PostScript file should follow the Adobe Docu-
       ment Structuring Conventions.

       The -e option selects all of the even pages; it may be used in conjunction with the other page selection options to select the  even  pages
       from a range of pages.

       The -o option selects all of the odd pages; it may be used in conjunction with the other page selection options.

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

       The -r option causes psselect to output the selected pages in reverse order.

       Psselect normally prints the page numbers of the pages rearranged; the -q option suppresses this.

       If any of the -r, -e, or -o options are specified, the page range must be given with the -p option. This  is  for  backwards  compatibility
       with previous versions.

NOTES

       The  page  number  given to psselect is the number of the page counting from the start or end of the file, starting at one. The actual page
       number in the document may be different.
