How do I add a cover(pdf) to the pdf latex build
The cover is a pdf with one page.
I want to when I build in latex, add to the front of the paf latex build.
Could I do that by some command or setting?
I know the process can be done in adobe reader, but it is not convenient.
Becuse I must merge them very time when I rebuild the pdf.
NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.
And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

that can be done by the command \includepdf of the pdfpages package, see its documentation.

But I add the two commands in preabmle.
It appears some error messages as below:
Package pdfpages Warning: I will use a dummy \ includepdf command whiich will NOT insert any pages, becuase you are producing DVI output.
Package pdfpages Warning: I cannot determine the number of pages of the included document, while being in DVI mode. You can use the option 'lastpage' to give me a hint.
Code: Select all
\usepackage{pdfpages}\begin{document}......\end{document}\includepdf[pages=1]{mycover.pdf}

welcome to the board!
Your advice is correct. Just an additional information, the question was already solved in another thread, what wasn't mentioned here. Until now.
