This command uses the pdfjam tool to perform some actions on a PDF file. Let's break down the different parts of the command:
-
pdfjam
: This is the command used to run the pdfjam tool. -
${filename-pdf}
: This is a placeholder for the name of the PDF file that you want to modify. You need to replace${filename-pdf}
with the actual filename. -
${path-to-signature}
: This is a placeholder for the file path to the signature image that you want to add to the PDF. Again, you need to replace${path-to-signature}
with the actual file path. -
--fitpaper true
: This option ensures that the PDF will be scaled to fit the paper size. -
--outfile ${path-to-signed-pdf}
: This option specifies the output file path where the modified PDF will be saved. You need to replace${path-to-signed-pdf}
with the desired file path. -
--nup "${1x2}"
: This option arranges the pages of the PDF into a "n-up" layout. In this case, the layout will be 1 page wide and 2 pages tall. -
--delta "${0 -842pt}"
: This option shifts the pages vertically by the specified delta value. In this case,0 -842pt
means the pages will be shifted upwards by 842 points (which is equivalent to about 11.75 inches).
Overall, this command takes a PDF file, adds a signature image to it, scales it to fit the paper size, arranges the pages in a 1x2 layout, and shifts them upwards by a specific amount.
