NAME

       pdfconcat - program to concatenate several PDF files.

SYNOPSIS

       pdfconcat -o outfile.pdf input1.pdf [inputN.pdf ...]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the pdfconcat command.

       pdfconcat is a small and fast command-line utility written in ANSI C that can concatenate (merge) several
       PDF files into a long PDF document. External libraries are not required, only ANSI C functions are  used.
       Several features of the output file are taken from the first input file only. For example, outlines (also
       known as hierarchical bookmarks) in subsequent input files are ignored. pdfconcat compresses its input  a
       little  bit  by  removing whitespace and unused file parts.  This program has been tested on various huge
       PDFs downloaded from the Adobe web site, plus an 1200-pages long mathematics  manual  typeset  by  LaTeX,
       emitted by pdflatex, dvipdfm and `gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite', totalling 5981 pages in a single PDF file.

OPTIONS

       -o output.pdf
              Place output in file output.pdf
