There are lot of solutions on google seach but I expect to find a simple and straightforward way. ghostscipt ps2pdf working on pdf files, converting them to ps files, then combining them and afterwards converting the resultant file to pdf file again. htmldoc iText etc. for html files. htmldoc is alreading running on my OS but I could not get it to work. I suppose it came together on installing FreeBSD 5.2 I will start another thread seeking for advice from folks on the mailing list in this respect. B.R. Stephen ___ Do You Yahoo!?

I found a perl script not so long ago that did a great job of merging PDF files, but I can't seem to locate it again. A google search provides a lot of links to track down, and a lot of reading to do on the subject.

Sorry for not having explained clear in my first posting. I repeat it with following examples; 1) Saving webpages from website as following files Page-1.pdf Page-2.pdf Page-3.pdf Page-4.pdf and so on - how to combine all of them in a SINGLE file in the order of page number still in .pdf format. - how to rearrange them in the SINGLE file changing postition of Page-4 to Page-1 etc. afterwards 2) Printing webpages from website as following files Page-1.ps Page-2.ps Page-3.ps Page-4.ps and so on - how to combine all of them in a SINGLE file in the order of page number still in .ps format. - how to rearrange them in the SINGLE changing postition of Page-4 to Page-1 etc. afterwards 3) Saving webpages from website as following files Page-1.html Page-2.html Page-3.html Page-4.html and so on - how to combine all of them in a SINGLE file in the order of page number still in .html format. - how to rearrange them in the SINGLE changing postition of Page-4 to Page-1 etc. afterwards TIA B.R. satimis > I cannot say anything about the second case. > > For the first case, there are archive creaters like > tar, pax, & > cpio.

Do you want to collect a number of files in various formats in one file to be able to extract any file from the resulting collection? Or, do you want to collect information contained in different files in one single file in only one format? I cannot say anything about the second case. For the first case, there are archive creaters like tar, pax, & cpio. See manual pages for respective commands, and some of the articles from a larger collection ...

Command to combine several files as a single file, etc.
Hi folks, Frequently I save/print doucument from Website as .html .pdf .ps etc. files. If the document consists of several pages then there will be serveral files. What command line/lines shall I use to combine file of several pages as a single file (not with 'echo' command). Or which application on KDE desktop shall I use to achieve this goal. After a single file created, how can I move pages around inside the file (not with copy/paste command). Additional how to add 'note' to the file/page or bookmark a paragraph inside the file. On the old day when I ran Windows, I used 'PaperPort', 'PageKeeper','Omnipage, etc. to do the abovementioned job. Are there similar applications on Open Source for FreeBSD/Unix/Linux worlds. TIA.
