Does RH8 come with software tools to merge pdf or ps files. I see that
I can convert between the two, but just wondering if I can create a new
pdf that is created from multiple pdfs. By that I mean, each pdf file
is a different page. I guess it would also be helpful if there is a way
to merge pdf pages into one page, also. Like a preview page or have 4
pages viewed as one page. I hope any of this makes sense. Thanks.

Adobe makes such a product but they make you pay for it.
But you cold look at all the conversion programs that are in the gs
rpm package and it might be possible somehow.

Adobe makes fine software but you can do it with pdftex (pdflatex) using the pdfpages package. RH8 comes with a version of pdflatex that will run pdfpages. You will probably need to download the pdfpages package. It look pretty easy to do. See http://www.tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2002-May/ and welcome to the world of tex. I haven't tried merging pdf files myself but I have read a lot on the pdftex mailing list which has had comments about others using pdfpages. Good luck.
