After upgrading recently, I found that texexec no longer preserves the order of
files passed to it. When I concatenate files with texexec, I often have more
than 10 files I want to pass to texexec names filename1.pdf, filename2.pdf, ...
filename12.pdf, etc. In the past, the following has worked to concatenate these
in the correct order:
texexec --pdfarrange --result=filename.pdf `ls -a -v filename*.pdf`
Now, even if I pass filename10.pdf after filename2.pdf on the command line,
texexec ingores this and puts filename10.pdf before filename2.pdf in the
resulting concatenated file.
Is there a fix for this, or is there a better way to concatenate pdf files?
If you just want to concat files, you can use pdftk
(http://www.accesspdf.com/pdftk/)
