NAME
       pdfjoin - join together multiple PDF files

SYNOPSIS
       pdfjoin [OPTION]... SRC [SRC]...


DESCRIPTION
       pdfjoin  concatenates the pages of multiple Portable Docu-
       ment Format (PDF) files together into a single file.

       pdfjoin is a front end to some of the capabilities of  the
       pdfpages  package for pdflatex.  A working installation of
       pdflatex with the pdfpages package is required.

       pdfjoin is part of the "PDFjam" package  of  tools,  whose
       homepage is at http://www.warwick.ac.uk/go/pdfjam.


SETUP
       See  http://www.warwick.ac.uk/go/pdfjam,  or the file PDF-
       jam-readme.html included with the PDFjam package.


USAGE
       For the available options and local/user defaults, see the
       output of

              pdfjoin --help

       For    further   information   and   some   examples   see
       http://www.warwick.ac.uk/go/pdfjam  or  the  file  PDFjam-
       readme.html included with the PDFjam package.


CONFIGURATION FILES
       Configuration  of pdfjoin involves specifying the location
       of pdflatex, the location of temporary  files,  specifica-
       tion  of  default page size, etc.  This is done in a block
       of lines at the top of the pdfjoin  shell  script  itself;
       settings  made there are over-ridden by any that are found
       at a site-wide configuration  file  (at  /etc/pdfnup.conf,
       /usr/share/etc/pdfnup.conf,  /usr/local/share/pdfnup.conf,
       or /usr/local/etc/pdfnup.conf), which in  turn  are  over-
       ridden  by  any  that are found in a user-defaults file at
       ~/.pdfnup.conf.


LIMITATIONS AND BUGS
       pdfjoin does not work with encrypted PDF files,  and  does
       not preserve hyperlinks.

       Please  report  bugs!  See  the website at http://www.war-
       wick.ac.uk/go/pdfjam.
