If you're looking for an OpenSource solution I highly recommend to look at PDFsam, which comes with a huge pack of useful features to merge, split and "alternate mix" PDF files.

Here's a brief guide explaining what it can do, with a strong focus on the Alternate Mix feature which is one of its major strenghts.

Solution 2

PDF-Shuffler is a GUI PDF app that allows you to merge, shuffle and delete PDF pages.

Install with;

Sudo apt-get install pdfshuffler

Good luck.

Solution 3

For ubuntu 18.04 i installed texlive-extra-utils (which contains pdfjam)

sudo apt install texlive-extra-utils

and then for 2 pages:

pdfnup --batch --suffix 2up my_pdf_file.pdf

or for 4pages in table 2x2 format:

pdfjam my_pdf_file.pdf --no-landscape --frame true --nup 2x2 --suffix 4up  --outfile ~/Desktop/

Sejda is an online service based on an open source PDF engine and the N-Up feature should do what you are asking.

Unfortunately this is only good for simple reordering of pages and merging documents. The question appears to be about merging pages within a single document.

pdfjam still works on Ubuntu 20.04. Thanks
