pdfimpose 📕 Perform imposition of a PDF file
=============================================

Imposition consists in the arrangement of the printed product’s pages on
the printer’s sheet, in order to obtain faster printing, simplify binding
and reduce paper waste (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imposition).

This software can perform imposition on PDF files of arbitrary size.
It handles several imposition schemas: perfect binding, saddle stitch, one page zine, etc.
See `documentation <https://pdfimpose.rtfd.io>`__ for more details.
