    I use cutepdf writer to print pdf files, but now I need to combine a couple of them and don't know what free software can do it. Any suggestions?

    LaTeX does it too with the pdfpages package. If this messaged seems cryptic to you, you should probably just ignore it . . .

    Thanks for the suggestion, I'm satisfied with FreePDF XP. The pdf writer is comparable to CutePDF Writer, and better than TinyPDF. I didn't like the one by one merging of PrimoPDF. FreePDF XP has a merge application like Acrobat where I can rearrange and merge a ton of pdfs at once.

    i m glad u liked it. FreePDF offers good FAQ and tips as well, should u want to explore it a bit more. I find it very good when printing web pages as well, though i m sure that it is not the only one in this

    cheers ...
