%APPEND_PDFS Appends/concatenates multiple PDF files
%
% Example:
%   append_pdfs(output, input1, input2, ...)
%   append_pdfs(output, input_list{:})
%   append_pdfs test.pdf temp1.pdf temp2.pdf
%
% This function appends multiple PDF files to an existing PDF file, or
% concatenates them into a PDF file if the output file doesn't yet exist.
%
% This function requires that you have ghostscript installed on your
% system. Ghostscript can be downloaded from: http://www.ghostscript.com
%
% IN:
%    output - string of output file name (including the extension, .pdf).
%             If it exists it is appended to; if not, it is created.
%    input1 - string of an input file name (including the extension, .pdf).
%             All input files are appended in order.
%    input_list - cell array list of input file name strings. All input
%                 files are appended in order.

% Thanks to Reinhard Knoll for pointing out that appending multiple pdfs in
% one go is much faster than appending them one at a time.

% Thanks to Michael Teo for reporting the issue of a too long command line.
% Issue resolved on 5/5/2011, by passing gs a command file.

% Thanks to Martin Wittmann for pointing out the quality issue when
% appending multiple bitmaps.
% Issue resolved (to best of my ability) 1/6/2011, using the prepress
% setting

% 26/02/15: If temp dir is not writable, use the output folder for temp
%           files when appending (Javier Paredes); sanity check of inputs
% 24/01/18: Fixed error in case of existing output file (append mode)
% 24/01/18: Fixed issue #213: non-ASCII characters in folder names on Windows
% 06/12/18: Avoid an "invalid escape-char" warning upon error
