Hi list,
Im wondering if anybody knows a tool or extension for inkscape that can make a pdf document with several pages. (also wellcome hacky-shell tools) I have tried to export till now and AFAIK it makes a single pdf page with the whole content in the formatted-page-layout.
Any ideas?
salut xà!

Here are my notes on using the gs / psmerge / ps2pdf tools. The "# merge" one might be relevant to you?
# extract
gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER \ -dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1 \ -sOutputFile=exp1.pdf expense_feb2010.pdf
# merge gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER -sOutputFile=exp1.pdf 30-T4*.pdf
# pdf to png pages gs -sDEVICE=pnggray -sOutputFile=collected.%04d.png \ -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -r600x600 ../collected.pdf

psmerge RRH202_Garver_FINAL*ps >RRH202_Garver_FINAL.ps

Any ideas?

Depending on your OS there are GUI's for it, on linux I use PDFChain. http://www.pdflabs.com/tools/pdftk-the-pdf-toolkit/
There are several for windows.
Inkscape isn't really designed for multi-page output. What you might want to try using is Scribus which is a layout application, basically you arrange all your content and link it to the source files(images or text).
Thanks, Alex
Alex -- look up a program called pdf995 (and associated programs there perhaps). It converts by installing as a printer (on Windows at least) -- you print to it, instead of a normal printer, and it outputs pdf. Don't know if will work, but it may be worth trying.
Cheers, Reto

Try using the JessyInk extension. Although intended to prepare presentation material, it does allow the user to save their work in a zip file that will contain a pdf or png file for each layer. Look in the file save as menu, for the JessyInk zipped entry.
