.TH "PDFJOIN" "1" "29 Januar 2006" "" ""
.SH NAME
pdfjoin \- concatenate the multiple PDF files into a single file
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBpdfjoin\fR [ \fB--paper \fIpapersize\fB\fR ] [ \fB--orient \fIorientation\fB\fR ] [ \fB--fitpaper \fIfitpaper\fB\fR ] [ \fB--trim \fItrimspec\fB\fR ] [ \fB--offset \fIoffset\fB\fR ] [ \fB--noautoscale \fInoautoscale
\fB\fR ] [ \fB--outfile \fIout.pdf\fB\fR ] [ \fB--tidy \fItidy\fB\fR ] \fBsource.pdf\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
This manual page documents briefly the
\fBpdfjoin\fR command.
.PP
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution
because the original program does not have a manual page.
Instead, it has inline documentation
accessible with \fBpdfjoin --help\fR\&.
.PP
\fBpdfjoin\fR
which concatenates the pages of multiple PDF files together into a
single PDF file.
It depends on a working installation of (pdf)LaTeX.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP
A summary of options is included below.
.TP
\fB --paper \fIpapersize\fB \fR
A LaTeX papersize, for example a4paper or letterpaper.
The default is a4paper.
.TP
\fB --orient \fIorientation\fB \fR
The output page orientation; one of landscape, portrait
or auto. The auto option guesses the orientation so as to
minimize paper consumption. The default is auto.
.TP
\fB --fitpaper \fIfitpaper\fB \fR
True or false according to whether output page sizes and
orientations should match those of the input pages. Use of
\fB--fitpaper true\fR overrides \fB--orient
\fR\&.
.TP
\fB --trim \fItrimspec\fB \fR
A page-trimming specification such as "1cm 1cm 1cm 1cm"
(including the quoting). The default is "0 0 0 0", i.e. no trimming
at all. Note that trimming does not mix well with using
\fB--frame true\fR\&.
.TP
\fB --offset \fIoffset\fB \fR
The offset of the position of output pages, such as
"1cm 0.5cm" (including the quoting).
The default is "0 0", i.e. no offset at all. See
the manual for the pdfLaTeX pdfpages package for further details.
.TP
\fB --noautoscale \fInoautoscale\fB \fR
True or false according to whether or not logical pages should
not be scaled to fit. The default is false.
.TP
\fB --outfile \fIout.pdf\fB \fR
The name of the output file. The default is
pdfjoined.pdf.
.TP
\fB --tidy \fItidy\fB \fR
True or false according to whether or ot temporary files
should be deleted immediately. If this is set to false,
the temporary files are left in /var/tmp. The default is true.
.SH "CONFIGURATION FILES"
.PP
Configuration of pdf90 involves specifying the location of pdflatex, the location of temporary files, etc. This is done in a block of lines at the top of the pdf90 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.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.PP
\fBpsmerge\fR (1), pdfLaTeX pdfpages package manual.
.SH "AUTHOR"
