Thank you Thibaut. TeX-command-buffer is a very neat solution for when I am working on these documents individually and want a quick preview. Thanks for pointing that out. But if possible, I am looking to automatically generate different PDF files (4 in the above example) with one command. The particular case that I need this is for NIH grant proposals, where they need individual documents and one big reference file containing all the references throughout out the proposal. Kourosh
