Most simple way:

colorblind_pdf my_document.pdf

Default values

-o/--output_dir: current directory ('.')

-d/--deficiency_type: all deficiencies ('all')

-D/--dpi: resolution (default: 150 DPI)

--merge: merge the outputs into a single file where each page is a mosaic

-O/--overlay: merged output will get an overlay over the subpages

The test.pdf with merged, overlayed output should look like this:
