To add to this, you can substitute "Histo.tex" for "Histo.txt", and use
the \input command in your main TeX file to import Histo.tex. And so
save a bit of manual cutting and pasting.

To add to David's comments, you can do this using Stata/latex combo easily. Baby example providing a histogram per page (you can make this a sophisticated as you like)
*** begin ***
set more off
foreach q of varlist q* {
histogram `q'
graph export `q'h.pdf, replace
}
file open myfile using "Histo.txt", write replace
foreach q of varlist q* {
file write myfile "\begin{figure}[h!]" _n ///
"\caption{""`q'""}" _n ///
"\centering" _n ///
"\includegraphics{""`q'""h.pdf}" _n ///
"\end{figure}" _n ///
"\clearpage" _n
}
file close myfile
set more on
*** end ***
You then just need to \insert the Histo.txt file into your tex file, which of course can write and compile directly from Stata also.

I can't think of how to do this directly in Stata, but you could use another program to merge single-page PDFs.
Ghostscript, for example, is an open source program for various platforms, and I believe you could run it as a command line from a Stata -shell- (in Unix or Mac, at least).

Subject: st: export graphs to pdfs with option to append pages?
Dear All,
I need to generate a large amount of graphical reports routinely.
Right now, I need to combine pages in Acrobat after exporting graphs
to single- page pdfs. I wonder if there's an easier way to generate
multi-page pdfs directly in Stata.
Thank you so much
