NUP(1)							      General Commands Manual							    NUP(1)

NAME

       nup - multiple pages per sheet with dvi2ps

SYNOPSIS

       nup [ [ -p paper ] [ -2 ] [ -4 ] [ -8 ] [ -l ] [ -n ] ]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly the nup command.  This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the origi-
       nal command hadn't manual page.
       Nup puts multiple logical pages onto each physical sheet of paper with dvi2ps.  The input PostScript file should be of dvi2ps

       The -p paper option is to set the paper size which is available with dvi2ps.

       The -2 option is to put 2 logical pages on each sheet of paper.

       The -4 option is to put 4 logical pages on each sheet of paper.

       The -8 option is to put 8 logical pages on each sheet of paper.

       The -l option is to surround a page with frame.

       The -n option in not to shrink each logical pages.

EXAMPLES

       to print 2 pages in a sheet:
	      dvi2ps foo.dvi | nup -2 | lpr

       to print 8 pages in a B4 paper:
	      dvi2ps foo.dvi | nup -8 -p b4 | lpr

       to print 4 pages in a letter size paper with frame:
	      dvi2ps foo.dvi | nup -4 -p letter -l | lpr

       to print 2 B5 size pages in a B4 paper:
	      dvi2ps -o b5 foo.dvi | nup -2 -n -p b4  | lpr
