We have a merged HTML Help project and it would be desirable  to generate PDF document such that the central (master) is on top (with the table of contents with all page number correct and merge the rest of the PDF into that one document. Is that possible?

At the moment I can only help myself to generate distinct documents with all their own page numbers and the Master document is empty so to say, no tabe of content,

That can only be done in Word or Acrobat. You cannot merge a printed output from RoboHelp.

In Word you would have a master document as described on my site. Historically people reported all sorts of issues with this approach but some say it has improved.

In Acrobat you can insert one PDF into another.
