Andreas Lehmkühler closed PDFBOX-5445.
--------------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
I guess [~lmodesto.work] proposal to use the picocli feature for a huge number
of command line arguments satisfies the main requirement to support a list
files to be merged.
PDFBOX-5670 adds repeatable subcommands which might be handy as well.
I can't see an easy solution for the second requirement to suppress page
breaks. It would require to re-render the whole pdf including the effort to
find a new position for the page break.
> Add command line options to accept file containing list of files to merge

> Key: PDFBOX-5445
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-5445
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0 PDFBox
> Environment: windows 11, 10
> Reporter: Zbigniew Minciel
> Priority: Major
>
> Users of free MBox Mail Viewer require to export hundreds of emails into PDF
> and merge them into a single PDF document. Due to command line length
> limitations, smaller subsets of PDF mails have to be merged first and merge
> again multiple times. Merging must preserve order of emails. Option to accept
> a file containing a list of PDF files to merge would be very helpful.
> Another very useful option would be suppress "Page Break" at the end of PDF
> document to allow multiple small emails to fit on a page. Frequently, emails
> within the same thread are small.
