Application to combine PDF files?

[oxf]

Hi

My partner has a lot of PDF files saved. She would like to combine some of them into single files. Any recomendations for applications to do this?

Thanks

OK thanks! Those will do for now but what I was really looking for was a GUI utility.
To bad I can do it using acroread.

Anyone used PDFSAM to merge pdf's? I added that but couldn't get it to work!

Copy the files into a single directory, and:

for file in *.pdf; do pdf2ps $file; done;
cat *.ps > allcontent.ps
ps2pdf allcontent.ps

OK, you want a GUI, but it's prettey easy to make a script of this... or at least could be useful for other people

OK thanks! That does the trick for now. If anyone does know of a GUI app please let me know.

You could try giving PDF-Shuffler a try. I haven't used it, there is a blog entry regarding it, with youtube vid even, but guess I haven't posted here enough to include a URL. I should fix that, huh?

Anyhow if you google PDF-Shuffler, you'll find it. Looks pretty intuitive.

To find the blog post I read, google
bigbrovar PDF Shuffler

Let me know how it works.
