pdfmerge

Command-line utility for merging, splicing, and rotating PDF documents.

Why?

I find myself merging bits of different PDFs fairly regularly and really wanted a simple CLI way to do it.

python -m pip install pdfmerge

$ pdfmerge [-h] [--version] [-o FILE|--output FILE] [-p PASSWORD|--password PASSWORD] PATH[RULE[, RULE ...]] [PATH[RULE, ...]] ...]

-o, --output output file (default: output.pdf). Must not be any of the input files.
-p, '--password` password for encrypted files (default: empty string).
PATH a file, directory, or wildcard string (e.g., file*.pdf) of files to merge.
RULE an optional string indicating which pages to extract and rotate. The syntax for each rule is:
```
[START][..][END][ROTATE]
```
Where START and END are positive (1-based) or negative page numbers and ROTATE is one of >, V, or < indicating a clockwise rotation of 90, 180, 270 degrees, respectively.

$ pdfmerge -o out.pdf file1.pdf file2.pdf[3,3] file2.pdf[1V,2..-1] "other*.pdf[<]" "/path/pdf[1..4>,5]"

This example illustrates several features:

pdfmerge can also be imported into python scripts.

from pdfmerge import pdfmerge
pdfmerge(["pdf-1.pdf", "pdf-2.pdf[2>]"], "output.pdf")
