As long as it's a valid PDF file I don't mind what causes the bloat. Unfortunately I don't have an access to the mentioned tools :- — tkane.
One possibility is, if you are familiar with PDF format: Create some simply PDF with one page Page should be contained within one object Copy object multiply times Add references to the copied objects to the page catalog Fix xref table You get an valid document of any size, entire file will be processed by a reader. Thanks for the action plan. When I get five minutes I'll code something up and post the solution here.

I will update my answer. Have you tried using cat to combine the files? Trevor Trevor I'm not sure how to validate a pdf. I can open it in a PDF viewer just fine. But cat just merges those two files into one, so the "headers" for each file will remain there.
I don't think it's a valid PDF. Thanks anyway! It is a valid PDF, some kind ugly and second part will be never read by a reader, but it is valid after PDF reference.
