Re: Taking multiple PDF's and creating one - can it be done on theSystem i? -- MIDRANGE-L

You might contact richard@xxxxxxxxxxx . I use a product of theirs to go theother way, taking a huge pdf, and splitting into individual pdfs (we get USPostal Signature pdf weekly, where one pdf has thousand of pages, each witha signature). It works well, but does execute on a win server, and havemanaged to automate the whole process, the pdfs all in our ifs directory.I am actually in need of the same thing you are looking for as well, justhave not pursued it.

just a user.

Subject: Taking multiple PDF's and creating one - can it be done ontheSystem i?

Is there any way to take multiple PDF files and then have them merged
into one document with multiple bookmarks/tabs with the resulting PDF
file?



We have reporting processes that generate a composite package.  In many
circumstances we would like to take several PDF reports and bundle them.



I don't think I can do this process ahead of time - it's not related via
data but effectively related to either the group creating the report or
the group receiving it.  We'd like to send one attachment instead of
multiples.
