We use cl-pdf and cl-typesetting directly (as part of invoice generation), creating some text, layout, adding images, etc. We email many of them, and then use pdftk on the command line to join all PDF invoices into one big file for easy printing.
We don't have to deal with page numbers, but I think pdftk's "multistamp" or "multibackground" function could be probably be used (abused?) to apply page numbers.
