<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>This manual page documents briefly the
<command>&dhpackage;</command> command. </para>
<para>This manual page was written for the &debian; distribution
because the original program does not have a manual page.
Instead, it has inline documentation
accessible with <command>&dhpackage --help</command>.</para>
<para><command>&dhpackage;</command> is a program
which allows PDF files to be "n-upped" in roughly the way that
<command>psnup</command>
does for PostScript files, i.e. multiple pages can be put together
on one physical page at a reduced size.
It depends on a working installation of (pdf)LaTeX.

<title>CONFIGURATION FILES</title>
<para>
Configuration of pdfnup involves specifying the location of pdflatex,
the location of temporary files, specification of default page size,
etc. This is done in a block of lines at the top of the pdfnup
shell script itself; settings made there are over-ridden by any that
are found at a site-wide configuration file
(at /etc/pdfnup.conf,
/usr/share/etc/pdfnup.conf, /usr/local/share/pdfnup.conf, or
/usr/local/etc/pdfnup.conf), which
in turn are over-ridden by any that are found in a user-defaults
file at ~/.pdfnup.conf.
