12:45 pm - pdfmerge and simple Ghostscript trick
I found this review request recently:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=456331

Rahul tries to push pdfmerge into Fedora, but seems that he simply unfamiliar with mighty power of Ghostscript :), because those, who have read something about gs, already knows that to merge pdf-files in one is easiest task for this application:

gs -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=out.pdf -f file1.pdf file2.pdf ... fileN.pdf


In this way I merged hundreds (or even thousands) of scanned pages of many different magazines in one (so-called pirated content, of course - I don't want to hurt the forests of our Planet by bying magazines/newspapers/etc, made from paper, obsoleted technology from 3500 BC, according to Wikipedia).
