Example:

    from pyPdf import PdfFileWriter, PdfFileReader

    output = PdfFileWriter()

    input1 = PdfFileReader(file("document1.pdf", "rb"))

    # add page 1 from input1 to output document, unchanged

    output.addPage(input1.getPage(0))

    # add page 2 from input1, but rotated clockwise 90 degrees

    output.addPage(input1.getPage(1).rotateClockwise(90))

    # add page 3 from input1, rotated the other way:

    output.addPage(input1.getPage(2).rotateCounterClockwise(90))

    # alt: output.addPage(input1.getPage(2).rotateClockwise(270))

    # add page 4 from input1, but first add a watermark from another pdf:

    page4 = input1.getPage(3)

    watermark = PdfFileReader(file("watermark.pdf", "rb"))

    page4.mergePage(watermark.getPage(0))

    # add page 5 from input1, but crop it to half size:

    page5 = input1.getPage(4)

    page5.mediaBox.upperRight = (

        page5.mediaBox.getUpperRight_x() / 2,

        page5.mediaBox.getUpperRight_y() / 2

    )

    output.addPage(page5)

    # print how many pages input1 has:

    print "document1.pdf has %s pages." % input1.getNumPages())

    # finally, write "output" to document-output.pdf

    outputStream = file("document-output.pdf", "wb")

    output.write(outputStream)
