Firstly I tried using my old favourite `pandoc` which will apparently only output PDF files, not input them. + +Some quick searching around lead me to `pdfunite` which did the job perfectly. + +Simple issue the following command to merge 3 files into one final output file: +``` +pdfunite page-1.pdf page-2.pdf page-3.pdf pages-out.pdf +``` +Be careful when specifying your files here as the last file will be overwritten if it already exists. + +If you don't have `pdfunite` installed, it's available via: +``` +sudo apt-get install poppler-utils +```
