SUMMARY: merging 2 pdf

[Adam Bisbe <bblp@xxxxxxxxx>]

My question was not as clear as it should be:
I wanted to 'superimpose' one page on top of the other to get one new 
page. To explain it I wanted to 'write' on a form which had no fields.

Some of you suggested ghostscript, others perl, but Kiryl Hackhovich 
pointed me to pdftk.
After talking to Sid Steward from pdftk he suggested using the 
'background' option:

pdftk first.pdf background second.pdf output final.pdf

The final.pdf has the first on top of the second. This only works with 
the first page, as the background gets repeated on all pages (the same 
background).

Thank you all
Adam
