Thanks for that. This pdfbook thing is interesting, i downloaded and installed 
it. But, the problem is that, it is doing the work in a preformatted way, and 
that way does not fall in line exactly with the need. Like, i changed the 
page size to a custom 13 cm by 21 cm with 2.4 cm margins on all sides, a size 
quite near to the usual Bangla book size, and the pdf now had 84 pages. Now 
running 'pdfbook -2 <input.pdf> <output.pdf>' was putting page 1 and 84 on 
the first paper page, page 2 and 83 on the second, and that too in the 
reverse orientation of the first, and then 3 and 82, in the same orientation 
of the first, and so on ... . The orientation is no problem, after getting 
the printout, we can physically arrange them. But, the problem is, the pages 
must come in order. Can you suggest any wayout? I tried the group '-s' option 
with pdfbook, but it was of no avail. The pdfbook.c file is there. And you 
are all learned technical people, can any of you come to any help? I think 
this pdfbook is a very good direction.
