It seems texexec is rearranging things for us. If I have three files:
pabscan001.pdf
pabscan002.pdf
pabscan010.pdf
Both of these statements produce the same output:
texexec --pdfarrange --result=pabscana.pdf pabscan001.pdf pabscan010.pdf
pabscan002.pdf
texexec --pdfarrange --result=pabscana.pdf pabscan001.pdf pabscan002.pdf
pabscan010.pdf
Namely, the order is interpreted as:
TeXExec | arranging file pabscan001.pdf
TeXExec | arranging file pabscan002.pdf
TeXExec | arranging file pabscan010.pdf
Here is the full output of
texexec --pdfarrange --result=pabscana.pdf pabscan001.pdf pabscan010.pdf
pabscan002.pdf
TeXExec | arranging file pabscan001.pdf
TeXExec | arranging file pabscan002.pdf
TeXExec | arranging file pabscan010.pdf
TeXExec | processing document 'texexec'

Re: [NTG-context] texexec ignores file order
This bug has just resurfaced. It was working, for a while, but is now back. I a, on a fully updated mandriva 2009 system using texlive.

[NTG-context] texexec ignores file order
exexec --pdfarrange --result=yujo_insurance.pdf yujo_insurance1.pdf yujo_insurance2.pdf yujo_insurance3.pdf yujo_insurance4.pdf yujo_insurance5.pdf yujo_insurance6.pdf yujo_insurance7.pdf yujo_insurance8.pdf yujo_insurance9.pdf yujo_insurance10.pdf yujo_insurance11.pdf yujo_insurance12.pdf 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? bb ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
