The pdfpages Package -------------------- This package simplifies the insertion of external multi-page PDF documents into LaTeX documents. Pages can be freely selected and similar to psnup it is possible to put several logical pages onto each sheet of paper. Furthermore a lot of hypertext features like hyperlinks and article threads are provided. This package supports pdfTeX, VTeX, and XeTeX. With VTeX it is even possible to use this package to insert PostScript files, in addition to PDF files. INSTALLATION: An easy way to install this package is to download the TDS-packaged zip file form CTAN:install/macros/latex/contrib/pdfpages.tds.zip and to unzip this file into your TeX-tree, e.g.: unzip -d /usr/local/TL2008/texmf-local/ pdfpages.tds.zip That's all you have to do. Only if you want to extract and install the files manually, proceed as follows: * Run `latex pdfpages.ins' to produce the LaTeX files * Run `latex pdfpages.dtx' to produce the documentation * Move the files into appropriate directories searched by LaTeX.
