psmerge

PSMERGE(1)						      General Commands Manual							PSMERGE(1)

NAME

       psmerge - filter to merge several PostScript files into one

SYNOPSIS

       psmerge [ -oout.ps ] [ file.ps ...  ]

DESCRIPTION

       Psmerge	merges	PostScript  documents into a single document. It only works in the specific case the the files were created using the same
       application, with the same device setup and resources (fonts, procsets, patterns, files, etc) loaded.

       If the -o option is used, output will be sent to the file named, otherwise it will go to standard output.

       Psmerge will merge multiple files concatenated into a single file as if they were in separate files.

BUGS

       psmerge is for a very specific case; it does not merge files in the general case.
       For all those cases which can not be handled by psmerge the program gs (known as ghostscript) may help:

	     gs -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pswrite -sOutputFile=out.ps 
	     file1.ps file2.ps ... -c quit

       This is rather slow and generates bigger output files.
