I haven't played with this, but, looking at the cl-pdf source, I see a file name pdf-parser.lisp, containing intriguiing function names like read-pdf and insert-original-page-content.

Read through and try out the #|'ed out test section at the bottom of the file.

It helps to know a bit about the internal structure of a pdf document.

There are also various command-line tools - google for "pdf merge", "pdf tools", "pdf parser", etc.
