The comma separates pages. It is not a thousands separator and it is not a decimal comma. 3,1,2 means page 3, then page 1, then page 2. A range such as 1-3 may only ascend, and 3-1 is refused. Writing the same number twice copies that page twice. A page left out is absent from the output. An empty result stops. A file larger than 60 × 1024 × 1024 bytes is refused, and the page calls that limit 60 MB. Paper length treats 72 points as one inch. English shows inches, and the other languages show millimetres. In the sample, pages 1 and 3 are Letter and page 2 is A4. The download name keeps A–Z, digits, hyphen, and underscore.
