pdfpages
Since I had problems \include-ing some .tex to my project I tried using the pdfpages package and the \includepdf command, but the pages are included displaced and I don't understand the pdfpages documentation (how to use the delta or what logical pages are). My code is simple:
\documentclass[11pt,a4paper,final,twoside,twocolumn,notitlepage]{article}
\usepackage{pdfpages}
\includepdf[pages=-]{file1}
\includepdf[pages=-]{file2}
\includepdf[pages=-]{file3}
\includepdf[pages=-]{file4}
pdfpages provides the pagecommand option for \includepdf, which can be used to apply a page style for each page, to print headings and more. For example, add plain page style or your own page style to get page numbers on all included pages:
\includepdf[pages=-,pagecommand=\thispagestyle{plain}]{filename}
Using fancyhdr you can define your own page style and move the page number/counter into the appropriate position.
\usepackage{pdfpages}% http://ctan.org/pkg/pdfpages
\usepackage{fancyhdr}% http://ctan.org/pkg/fancyhdr
\fancypagestyle{mylandscape}{%
\fancyhf{}% Clear header/footer
\fancyfoot{% Footer
\makebox[\textwidth][r]{% Right
\rlap{\hspace{\footskip}% Push out of margin by \footskip
\smash{% Remove vertical height
\raisebox{\dimexpr.5\baselineskip+\footskip+.5\textheight}{% Raise vertically
\rotatebox{90}{\thepage}}}}}}% Rotate counter-clockwise
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}% No header rule
\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0pt}% No footer rule
}
You would then use pagecommand=\thispagestyle{mylandscape}. Example output with one.pdf (1 page portrait) and two.pdf (1 page landscape):
two.tex:\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pdflscape,lipsum}% http://ctan.org/pkg/lipsum
\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}
\begin{landscape}
\lipsum[1-5]
\end{landscape}
\end{document}
one.tex:\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lipsum,pdfpages,fancyhdr}% http://ctan.org/pkg/{lipsum,pdfpages,fancyhdr}
\fancypagestyle{mylandscape}{%
\fancyhf{}% Clear header/footer
\fancyfoot{% Footer
\makebox[\textwidth][r]{% Right
\rlap{\hspace{\footskip}% Push out of margin by \footskip
\smash{% Remove vertical height
\raisebox{\dimexpr.5\baselineskip+\footskip+.5\textheight}{% Raise vertically
\rotatebox{90}{\thepage}}}}}}% Rotate counter-clockwise
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}% No header rule
\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0pt}% No footer rule
}
\begin{document}
\lipsum[1-5]
\includepdf[noautoscale,landscape,pagecommand=\thispagestyle{mylandscape}]{two.pdf}
\end{document}

I found the problem: I was changing page layout with
\voffset,\hoffset,\headheight, etc and, apparently,pdfpagesdon't likes that (ridiculous, Isn't it?). Wuth\voffset = 0cmand\hoffset = 0cmit works fine.
