Combining PDFs
I’ve probably written about combining PDFs before, but it doesn’t hurt
to revisit this…
To combine PDFs…
-
…on a Mac, use PDFLab
or CombinePDF -
…on Windows machine, use JPDF
Tweak or PDF
Split and Merge or -
…on UbuntuLinux, at the command line:
- Install by typing sudo apt-get install gs pdftk
- Combine files using the following command:
gs -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOUTPUTFILE=combinedpdf.pdf -dBATCH
1.pdf 2.pdf 3.pdf
If you have more than one PDF (like Google Calendar printouts), you can
combine them en masse with an adaptation of the command:
gs -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOUTPUTFILE=combinedpdf.pdf -dBATCH calendar*.pdf
And, here’s a collection
of PDF Tools.
