1. PDF Notes
1.1. Improving 2-up Printing
pdfcrop can be used to trim margins from PDFs. This is handy because the trimmed PDF can be printed 2-up and have larger text than normal. Usually, printing 2-up creates a lot of whitespace due to having both the margins from the original pages and then the margins added to the new page.
On Fedora 9, pdfcrop is in the texlive-utils package. On Ubuntu 8.04, it's in the texlive-extra-utils package.
1.2. Optimizing for Web Viewing
The pdfopt utility can be used to optimize PDFs for viewing over the network.
On Fedora 9 and Ubuntu 8.04, pdfopt is in the ghostscript package.
