I am currently working on a book that collects several finished standalone *.tex articles. Each article has its own title, abstract, sections, etc. So simply using \include
will unfortunately not work (e.g. because of multiple \title{}
and \abstract{}
blocks in the resulting document). The book itself has some additional material such as a preface, a title page and a table of contents. What I would like to achieve is a unified styling across the entire material (e.g. all single column), consistent page numbering and a unified bibliography at the very end, if possible. Simply concatenating the output PDFs is therefore also not an option.
How would you do this? I would like to avoid too much manual intervention in the original *.tex files, if possible.
article
if that helps. Other than that it should be easy to find a common superset of all used packages.\title{}
and\abstract{}
blocks (as they are limited to one per master *.tex file) and\ref{}
s which should remain intact in the combined document.combine
looks promising indeed. Thank you barbara, I will try to work with that!
