I use PDFTK for merging PDFs, extracting/deleting/duplicating pages, and decompressing so I can extract and manipulate text/data in raw PDF commands. I use pdfjam for n-up and adjusting page size and margins.

PDFTK can choke on some merges, some newish pdf features. In those cases one can use Ghostscript to merge and other manipulation.
