So I am working on a project were the members (over 20 in all) have been documenting and reporting their work as PDF printouts. I can't blame them. For the past three years every task presented to us must have been submitted in the form of a printed PDF.

However, none of them realize the pain it is to go through those PDFs, copy the text out, paste it into a new document only to have to print it out again. I have a program that is commercial trialware, and it places this nasty watermark on every page. It isn't overbearing, just unprofessional.

I know there are plenty of pay-for PDF tools, however I don't have the money for them, and I don't require all the editing features. I merely want to take multiple PDF pages and collate them into a single document.

Any freeware tools out there?
