Merging n PDFs to one under Linux

Posted in

For Linux a tool is available known as pdfmerge. With this tool you can merge many small pdfs into one large PDF. Its a command line tool.

Its syntax is as follows -

$ pdfmerge file1.pdf file2.pdf ... fileN.pdf outfile.pdf

The last argument (.pdf) is taken as the output file and the rest as input.

There is not limit on the no. of PDFs you can merge.

Download it from http://microtronyx.com/pdfmerge/

The link on http://www.itech7.com/Linux/Merging-n-PDFs-to-one-under-Linux to http://microtronyx.com/pdfmerge/ is broken.

I Googled a pile of links to Couturier and solutions using Ghostscript, but none to the pdfmerge application itself.

Any pointers? Will microtronyx ever finish their website? LOL

Hi, if you need a GUI application for this, you can try Couturier

pdfmerge seems to be still "under construction"
