I've had a similar problem, and have had success by first converting each
individual flight file to pfb, then using pfconv to bring all the small pfb
files into one large one.
For example, I use this shell script to convert output from TerraVista:
#!/bin/csh
/usr/share/Performer/bin/rmsem
foreach f ( flight*.flt )
pfconv $f `basename $f .flt`.pfb
/usr/share/Performer/bin/rmsem
end
pfconv flight*.pfb master.pfb
As far as I can work out, you only need the rmsem lines in pf2.4 on Linux.
Hope this helps,
Craig
