dvibook - rearrange pages in DVI file into signatures
dvibook
[ -q ] [ -s<num> ] [ -i infile ] [ -o outfile ] [ infile [ outfile ] ]
Dvibook
rearranges pages from a DVI file produced by TeX into ``signatures'' for printing
books or booklets, creating a new DVI file usable by any of the TeX conversion
programs.
The -s option selects the size of signature which will be used.
The signature size is the number of sides which will be folded and bound
together; the number given should be a multiple of four. The default is
to use one signature for the whole file. Extra blank sides will be added
if the file does not contain a multiple of four pages.
Dvibook normally
prints the page numbers of the pages rearranged; the -q option suppresses
this.

The TeXbook
Dvibook does not adjust the parameters in the postamble;
however, since these values are normally used only to size certain structures
in the output conversion programs, and the parameters never need to be
adjusted upward, this has not proven to be a problem.
