pdfjam

Shell frontend for the LaTeX pdfpages package for mingling PDFs. More information: https://github.com/rrthomas/pdfjam.

• Merge two (or more) PDFs:

pdfjam path/to/file1.pdf path/to/file2.pdf --outfile path/to/output_file.pdf

• Merge the first page of each file together:

pdfjam files… 1 --outfile path/to/output_file.pdf

• Merge subranges from two PDFs:

pdfjam path/to/file1.pdf 3-5,1 path/to/file2.pdf 4-6 --outfile path/to/output_file.pdf

• Sign an A4 page (adjust delta to height for other formats) with a scanned signature by overlaying them:

pdfjam path/to/file.pdf path/to/signature --fitpaper true --outfile path/to/signed.pdf --nup "1x2" --delta "0 -842pt"

• Arrange the pages from the input file into a fancy 2x2 grid:

pdfjam path/to/file.pdf --nup 2x2 --suffix 4up --preamble '\usepackage{fancyhdr} \pagestyle{fancy}'

• Reverse the order of pages within each given file and concatenate them:

pdfjam files… last-1 --suffix reversed
