Merging LaTeX files

Post by drmCA »

After much searching and reading, I realized two things: this topic is popular and I don't understand any of the solutions :(

What could I do to merge two latex files: one with the cover page of the book and another with the book itself (both in memoir)?

(The reason cover page is separate is that it uses pstricks).

I know that alternative is to merge output PDFs with pdfjoin, but it strips hyperlinks. Also I would like to avoid 2 step production to keep things simple.

Thank you!

It would be helpful if you reference those solutions by giving the appropriate link.

If you have that cover page present in PDF, you can simply include it by pdfpages right at the beginning of your document.
