H/A, I turn to you...

Is there a way to take multiple pdfs and bring them together into one single PDF? They are all different shapes, sizes, layouts, etc...

Anyway of doing that?

Will I need to buy a program? Any open source stuff out there that will do it?

Thanks for any possible help.

    Yeah, Acrobat Pro will do that easily. Freeware, I'm not so sure.

    The desire to spend that amount of cash isn't too high.

    Time to scour for open source or freeware applications that can get the job done.

    You could laboriously turn them into .tiffs and then back into a PDF or something.

    You may want to look into PDF Split and Merge. I've only used it to merge normal PDFs, but it might work for your needs.

    I actually am trying to use PDF split and merge. It's giving issues though.

    Can't find javaw.exe when I try to run it.

    Lovely.

    Use PrimoPDF or such and print the PDF to file?

    If you pick the same file, it gives you the option to append.

    I've put together a few PDFs that way for assignments.

    We use a program at work called eDocPrinter, which does what you're asking for. I don't know if its free or not.

    The PDF Split and Merge seems to be working now that I've downloaded Java.

    Haven't gone all the way through the process yet, but we shall see.
