Install Boomaga to make booklets from PDFs.

To interleave two pdf files (odd pages on one, even pages on the other), install pdftk and use the following command:

pdftk A=odd.pdf B=even.pdf shuffle A B output collated.pdf

If even.pdf is in reverse order, use this code:

pdftk A=odd.pdf B=even.pdf shuffle A Bend-1 output collated.pdf

To reverse the page order in a scanned document (even pages, for instance), install pdftk and use the following command:

pdftk reverse.pdf cat 10-1 output forward.pdf

where 10 is the last page number and 1 is the first page number.

See the server examples page for more examples.
