#  PDF Mix Tool
PDF Mix Tool is a simple and lightweight application that allows you to
perform common editing operations on PDF files.

Base operations it can perform are the following:
- Merge two or more files specifying a page set for each of them
- Rotate pages
- Composite more pages onto a single one (N-up)
- Combinations of all of the above
Besides, it can also mix files alternating their pages, generate booklets,
add white pages to a PDF file, delete pages from a PDF file, extract pages
from a PDF file, edit the PDF document information, extract images from a PDF file.
