Then comes the noteworthy bit: Concatenate the troff output of all
those separate documents and feed it all to the postprocessor at once,
as in

        troff -ms mainmatter.ms >mainmatter.trout 2>toc
        { troff frontmatter && troff toc && cat mainmatter.trout;       } | 
gropdf
all.pdf

That?s what I would do.

I take the output from 'groff -mm' which has the cover, main text, and Table-Of-Contents in that order. I then pull it apart and rearrange with PDFTK.
