fig2ps 1.4.1 (Stable branch)
fig2ps is a script for converting xfig files to PS or PDF, processing text using LaTeX. It is intended to help typeset good quality documents, where the font on the pictures is exactly the same as the font in the text. The advantage it has over some other xfig exporters such as eepic is that you compile the picture only once and not every time you compile your LaTeX file, giving a great gain in speed with complex pictures. It should work with LyX. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
This releases features the fixing of a whole bunch of old bugs, in particular the one that was resulting in fig2ps guessing the wrong bounding box with --bbox=gs (the default). The manual page was rewritten from scratch and is clearer now. Image

pdfconcat

PDFCONCAT(1)						      General Commands Manual						      PDFCONCAT(1)

NAME

       pdfconcat - program to concatenate several PDF files.

SYNOPSIS

       pdfconcat -o outfile.pdf input1.pdf [inputN.pdf ...]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the pdfconcat command.

       pdfconcat  is  a small and fast command-line utility written in ANSI C that can concatenate (merge) several PDF files into a long PDF docu-
       ment. External libraries are not required, only ANSI C functions are used.  Several features of the output file are taken  from	the  first
       input  file  only. For example, outlines (also known as hierarchical bookmarks) in subsequent input files are ignored. pdfconcat compresses
       its input a little bit by removing whitespace and unused file parts.  This program has been tested on various huge PDFs downloaded from the
       Adobe  web  site,  plus	an  1200-pages	long mathematics manual typeset by LaTeX, emitted by pdflatex, dvipdfm and `gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite',
       totalling 5981 pages in a single PDF file.

OPTIONS

       -o output.pdf
	      Place output in file output.pdf

SEE ALSO

       imgmerge(1), xpaint(1).
