Check out my other PDF tools: pdfautonup | pdfimpose.
Paper size and number of pages are configurable. Files can be used to test pdf manipulation tools.
Examples :
One page A4 paper: example1.pdf:
dummypdf A4
Six pages, a third of an A4 paper: example2.pdf:
dummypdf -n 6 -p 21cmx99mm
or:
dummypdf 21cmx99mm:6
A pdf with different page formats: different.pdf:
dummypdf A4 A5:landscapewest
But why?
To develop or test PDF manipulating tools, I sometimes need to have files with a very specific size or number of pages. I can generate those files with this tool.
