[David Bindle]

Are you able (both legally and technology-wise) to use Acrobat Pro to 
compile the component pdfs into a single pdf document?

> but a main PDF file and several attachments.

> The fact that there's several PDFs associated with each issue kind of

> repository. It's probably better that way all around anyway, for many 
> reasons which are probably extraneous to mention here.

> However, this leads me to wonder what the title should be. It doesn't seem 
> right to have each issue all have the same title. Thoughts?
