Some nifty fun with Linux and PDF files

Let me narrate 3 nice experiences with pdf on Linux while at work

1) Merging multiple PDF files

gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOUTPUTFILE=filename.pdf file1.pdf file2.pdf……..fileN.pdf

2) Convert ps to pdf

ps2pdf file.ps file.pdf

3) Compressing PDF files.

4) Convert images to PDF

convert image1.jpg image2.gif image3.tiff…….imageN.xyz filename.pdf
