NAME
psorder - PostScript pageorder filter
SYNOPSIS
psorder [-duf] sourcefile
DESCRIPTION
psorder is a filter that re-orders the pages of
a PostScript document. The result is written to the standard
output. By default, documents are processed into ascending order
(the lowest numbered page is printed first). Some PostScript
documents specify that the order of their pages should never be
changed; the default action of psorder is to follow this
specification.
If no source file is given, or if sourcefile is
`-', psorder reads from the standard input file.
OPTIONS
- -d
- Re-order the pages of the document in downward or descending
order. This is typically used to change the order of a document to
be printed by a printer that stacks pages face-up, such as an Apple
LaserWriter or LaserWriter Plus.
- -u
- Specifies forward order, and is the default. It is used to try
and ensure the correct ordering when a document will be printed by
a printer that stacks the pages face-down.
- -f
- Force psorder to re-order the pages, even if the document
claims that its page order is not to be trifled with. This option
should only be used experimentally, as it may cause documents to
print incorrectly.
