pdfjam

Shell frontend for the LaTeX pdfpages package for mingling PDFs.

More information.

• Merge two (or more) PDFs:

pdfjam {path/to/file1.pdf} {path/to/file2.pdf} --outfile {path/to/output_file.pdf}

• Merge the first page of each file together:

pdfjam {files...} 1 --outfile {path/to/output_file.pdf}

• Merge subranges from two PDFs:

pdfjam {path/to/file1.pdf 3-5,1} {path/to/file2.pdf 4-6} --outfile {path/to/output_file.pdf}

• Sign an A4 page (adjust delta to height for other formats) with a scanned signature by overlaying them:

pdfjam {path/to/file.pdf} {path/to/signature} --fitpaper true --outfile {path/to/signed.pdf} --nup "{1x2}" --delta "{0 -842pt}"

• Arrange the pages from the input file into a fancy 2x2 grid:

pdfjam {path/to/file.pdf} --nup {2x2} --suffix {4up} --preamble '{\usepackage{fancyhdr} \pagestyle{fancy}}'

• Reverse the order of pages within each given file and concatenate them:

pdfjam {files...} {last-1} --suffix {reversed}
