## Merge pdfs
|
|
|
|
|
### Using Ghostscript
|
|
|
|
|
Ghostscript has a feature to merge multiple pdf files into one.
|
|
|
|
|
Although ImageMagick also has this feature, I prefer this one, as it doesn't rasterize and scales down
|
|
|
|
|
the pdf files.
|

|
|
gs -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pdfwrite \
|
|
|
|
|
-sOUTPUTFILE=output.pdf \
|
|
|
|
|
-dBATCH 1.pdf 2.pdf
|
|

```
