+A Pure-Python library built as a PDF toolkit.  It is capable of:
+
+- extracting document information (title, author, ...),
+- splitting documents page by page,
+- merging documents page by page,
+- cropping pages,
+- merging multiple pages into a single page,
+- encrypting and decrypting PDF files.
+
+By being Pure-Python, it should run on any Python platform without any
+dependencies on external libraries.  It can also work entirely on StringIO
+objects rather than file streams, allowing for PDF manipulation in memory.
+It is therefore a useful tool for websites that manage or manipulate PDFs.
+
+## Note
+
+This project is no longer updated. I've stopped maintaining pyPdf, and a company named Phaseit has forked the project and continued development and maintenance with my blessing as [pyPdf2](https://github.com/mstamy2/pypdf2).
+
+## Example
+
+```python
+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)
+```
