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
