I can remember something similar.
I got fair results converting them to ps using pdf2ps as a command. Type pdf 
and hit <tab> for all the available options.....if you hadn't noticed: <tab> 
is your biggest friend on the command line:)

I used the command quite often to collate pdf files. cat file.pdf file2.pdf > 
newfile.pdf doesn't work on my box....so first convert to .ps with "pdf2ps" , 
than collate using "cat" and ">", then change back to pdf with "ps2pdfpress".

It's not pretty but works a charm and is fairly fast too (you can't beat it 
with mouse-clicking).
Welcome to the abysses of the command line, heheh;)

Good luck,
HarM
