How do I include an existing .pdf file in pdfLaTeX?

Post by nodapic »

Hi everyone!
I have been writing on a large pdflatex file and I am including some of my references as .pdf file in the appendix. I already have these file present on my computer and I only need to include them in my document now. The problem is: I have no clue how to do that... Any wisdom would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
