Merge pdf or smartform

Hi gurus,
is there any possibility to merge 2 pdf documents?
I have two smartforms - i will show both in one document. In this time we show as two separate documents - but now the request was changed -so we have to merge it. Regardless of which way (merge the pdfs or merge the smartforms before generating pdf) - is there any solution.
Thanks Stefan

Hi Stefan,
You can merge two smartforms into one pdf file.
I have uploaded a document regarding this .

XML Publisher in Oracle Applications - Merge PDFs in Templates

Requirement,
I have PDF files stored in Huge Blob columns in a oracle apps tables.
I would like to make a single PDF using the XML publisher template to merge all these PDFs into a single PDF file and show the merged PDF file, when user clicks on view output of the concurrent programme.
I am not interesed in using the Java apis provided as of now. I would like to acheive this using only template builder, without any java coding.
Any help would be appreciated on how to build the template. I have tried displaying images and it worked and i am not sure how i can do the samething with PDF files stored in HUGE BLOB columns.
Oracle XML Publisher Version is 5.6.3 which is being used by our Oracle Applications.
Thanks

Getting Error of Runtime Exceeded while generating OTF for PDF in smartform.

Hi All,

Hi
Yes as Eltan says you need to consider there are two blocks of abap program:
- the first one is the driver program (but it seems there's no problem here because it called the smartform quickly)
- the second one is inside the smartform (It's possible to write abap routine in the smartform), and it seems the problem could be here
The variable c_form_name has the name of the smartform, you can manage it by transaction SMARTFORMS
but now it's not possible to say you why the print takes too long time, you need to do a trace

How to merge pdf files into one pdf file?

In E-Rec we need the capability to mass printing for correspondance. There i want to merge pdf files for candidates into one pdf file. I am doing the following:
Data: lv_document1           TYPE rcf_s_cs_document_content.
LOOP AT activity_object_tab INTO ls_activity_object.
    lo_act_corr ?= ls_activity_object-activity.
     CALL METHOD lo_act_corr->process_document
       EXPORTING
         channel = 'FRONTEND'
       IMPORTING
         document = lv_document1.
ENDLOOP.
Now lv_document1 contains the pdf file in lv_document1-DOCUMENT_X which is of type RAWSTRING.
This works for one candidate, in this case the pdf for last candidate will be displayed.
But how would i append in the loop or what would i need to do display all candidates in one pdf.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Merge PDF documents into one PDF document

hi expets
I have got an question. I have several different PDFs.
Four main PDF and 20 PDFs which are ment as attachements.
Via ABAP code i would like to chose dynamicaly several of those attachement PDFs and merge them within one of the main forms.
So as result you will have one pdf which you can see in the print preview and send as one to the spool.
But is this possible?
Kindly hear from you!

Hi *,
Add below parameter values in report program in FP_JOB_OPEN function module.
SFPOUTPUTPARAMS-BUMODE = 'M'.
SFPOUTPUTPARAMS-PREVIEW = ' '.
Call different adobe forms without using FP_JOB_CLOSE.
It will merge pdf files.
At the end, call FP_JOB_CLOSE.
and then get the merged pdf as FPFORMOUTPUT-pdf.
Thank you.

How to download & how to merge pdfs into one pdf file?

Hello everyone!
I hope someone can help me, because I am SO frustrated right now! I want to create an electronic document of a 40-page thesis I wrote. I no
longer have the original computer files, so I took digital photos of each page.
Then I converted all the jpegs into pdf files.
Now I want to merge these 40 jpegs into one pdf file.
I read that this is possible with Adobe Acrobat 8 or 9. So, yesterday I downloaded the trial version of what I thought was Adobe Acrobat 9. Well,
two whole hours later, all I could find on my computer was Adobe Reader 9, which would not allow me to merge any pdfs.
So, today, I again reinstalled the Adobe Acrobat 9. Now, after waiting another two hours, there is NOTHING on my computer--no Adobe Reader, no Adobe Acrobat, no desktop icons, nothing in the "All Programs" list when I press the Start menu, etc.
What happened? How could something that took so damned long to download be totally invisible on my computer now? I do see Arcsoft, but that is for photographs. Is it possible to merge pdfs together using Arcsoft?
I have SO much other work to do, and I am so disgusted that I have lost two days on this project, just trying to merge pdfs together! Please, if
you have any suggestions as to how to get Adobe Acrobat 9 as a trial version an/or how to merge pdfs, please answer this post!
Thank you very much for your help.
Courtney

Hi. Yes, that is the link from which I downloaded Acrobat 9. I now have this file on my computer: AcroPro90_efg.exe
Yes, I did install it, but one of the times it hanged at 99.96%. Do you know what that means?
Thanks in advance.

Merging PDF / Page Numbers / Acrobat SDK V9 & LiveCycle

Hello everyone,
I use Adobe LiveCycle to create forms, Visual Studio 2005 and the Acrobat SDK for the application I'm programming to fill in these forms. The application fills in the forms and merges them with no issues.
The problem I have is that these pages have page numbers in the upper right. I use the Page N of M object on these forms in LiveCycle. PDF page numbers are filled in correctly when filling in the forms, but when I merge PDFs, the pages keep their original page numbers. I've looked at the Windows - Interapplication Communications even using templates to no avail.
How can I merge these pdf's and have my program renumber these pages correctly and how can insert pages anywhere I want in the merge document?
Below is the code I use to merge the PDF's. It was posted in a forum.
Sub MergePDF(ByVal ThePath As String, ByVal outFileName As String)
On Error GoTo serror
Dim dPDDocMerge As New Acrobat.AcroPDDoc
Dim dPDDoc As New Acrobat.AcroPDDoc
Dim strFiles() As String
Dim numPage As Integer
Dim TotalPage As Integer
Dim objThisFile As IO.FileInfo 'get FileInfo object for file string
strFiles = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(ThePath) ' Read in the file names
Dim b As Boolean ' mostly for testing purposes... could use it for error 'checking to make sure that a file is really added before deleleting it...
For i As Integer = 0 To strFiles.Length - 1 ' run through all the files in 'the directory
objThisFile = New IO.FileInfo(strFiles(i)) ' Get the extension
If objThisFile.Extension = ".pdf" Then ' Only add in PDFs
If dPDDocMerge.GetFileName = "" Then ' check if it's the first file
dPDDocMerge = New Acrobat.AcroPDDoc
b = dPDDocMerge.Open(strFiles(i)) ' open first file
TotalPage = dPDDocMerge.GetNumPages
Else
dPDDoc = New Acrobat.AcroPDDoc
b = dPDDoc.Open(strFiles(i)) ' open other files
numPage = dPDDocMerge.GetNumPages ' get the page count
TotalPage += numPage
b = dPDDocMerge.InsertPages(numPage - 1, dPDDoc, 0, dPDDoc.GetNumPages, _ False) ' Insert
End If
End If
Next
'b = dPDDocMerge.Save(1, ThePath & "\" & outFileName) ' save file
b = dPDDocMerge.Save(1, ThePath & "\" & "\MyTest.PDF") ' save file
b = dPDDocMerge.Close()
Exit Sub
serror:
MsgBox(ErrorToString)
End Sub
Thanks for any code or advice.

You can't merge LiveCycle forms this way :(. LC forms are NOT standard PDF files and can't be processed in the same way.

Standardise page sizes in merged PDF?

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to merge together a PowerPoint '07 and an Excel '07 file, both set to A4 lanscape page layouts, in Acrobat 9 Standard. However, in the final merged PDF, the old Excel pages are huge compared to the PowerPoint slides - about 6 times larger.
Any ideas how I can force Adobe output a merged PDF all in the same page size and orientation?
Thanks in advance,
Simon

Acrobat's combine feature to merge files into one PDF does not provide a page size "editor".
Likely a cleaner work flow if the input files had page size adjusted by their native application.
Once done, use combine to merge into the single PDF.
You may find this is (over all) easier than using the Crop Tool resize features.
To view any PDF's page size when open in Adobe Reader/Acrobat go into Preferences.
Select the Page Display catagory then tick the "Always show document page size" choice.
Be well

Merging PDFs in preview

I can't seem to merge PDFs in Preview 5.5.1. Am I missing something. Can someone guide me to an article or let me know how to do this. I've read that you simply open multiple PDFs in the thumbnail and then place one PDF on top of another, but when I try, the two PDFs just wiggle around and change order. If not preview - what program should I use?
Thanks
Doug

In Preview's sidebar, just drag one document on top of (i.e. not above and not below) another, but it sounds as if you're doing that.
Make sure you are doing this in the sidebar:
and make sure they are both PDFs.

Merging PDFs and then saving them as one file in Leopard

Would someone please tell me how I can merge PDF files into one PDF file. I have been able to drag and drop them together in Preview. I would love to be able to save the merged files into one file. Any ideas. I have read a lot online about this possibility in Snow Leopard, but I can't seem to save the dang file.
Help.

Open the first PDF. Open the tray so you can see the file on the left. Drag the other PDFs onto the first file in the tray. You can't just drag into the tray window anymore, you have to drag onto the file itself to merge. Save the file with new name.
Macmost has a good podcast on this subject that came out about a week ago. Shows other PDF tricks with Preview as well.

Which product do I purchase???? - Creating a merged PDF report from excel with cover page

Hi Guys,
I work in the BI field and have created a pdf document using PDFCreator and another third part scripting tool called jpdfbookmarks.
We have delivered something to the client but the quality of the output ( not the best) and the time it takes to cycle through each page ( when being viewed) within the merged
pdf document takes a little time...
So my boss as asked me to explore something within the Adobe suite of products BUT.... i have no idea which one i should choose.
My requirements are as follows:
To deliever this report to the client the program needs to be able to do the following:
1) convert excel files to pdf
2) take these individually created converted excel to pdf converted files and and merge them into 1 document
3) within this merged document have the abilty to be able to bookmark each page
4) have a cover page with hyperlinks
5) and finally but most important of all to be able perform steps 1 to 4 above programatically through scripting language vb script / vba
nice to haves:
6) abilty to email each merged doc to list of email address
7) abilty to edit document to add in hyperlinks etc
Need to get an understanding of costs ie
1) how much per licence
2) what product with have all the features above and how much
Can anyone please be kind enough to point me in the right direction as to what product would be best suited?? Being able
to scipt a solution together is key.
Cheers
Shockwave

You can do everything except the cover page with Adobe Acrobat (Standard or Pro). There are demos on our website that you can install and try out. You will need the SDK documentation and sample code to learn how to automate/program.

Issue while converting turkish text in PDF via SMARTFORMS

Hello Experts ,
We are currently involved in translating an application to Turkish. Though the translation is completely done, when we test the issue we find that the application is working perfectly with the Turkish text but the transfer of data from application to the PDF via SMARTFORM is not working correctly. We find that the issue is due to 3 characters in Turkish which are (Ğ,İ,ş), We found out that this issue can be resolved using the OSS Note 625818.
However we have another issue which has cropped up.
Wherever certain characters are being printed the characters right after them are printing at the same location and thus overlapping.
For eg:
Whenever the character u201CIu201D is printed it is being overlapped by the character which is supposed to be printed after it instead of printing next to it.
Should be - İN
Currently - both are overlapping
Any idea on how can this be fixed?
when I actually tried to copy the text from PDF and paste it in this email the character u201CIu201D is replaced by the character u201CÝu201D in this email text box.
Please find below the actual text from the PDF. The u201C u201D is seen nowhere and is replaced by the u201CÝu201D.
GÖREVÝN DEGERLENDÝRÝLMES
we have found a solution for the same which is to give a tab space between the İ and N but this will lead to unnecessery space in the application.
Thank You!
Best Regards
Bonny

Hi,
We cannot print some characters as such, so try converting it to string or char then go for PDF.
Check the below link and note:
[Cannot extract the embedded font arial.Some char might not be displayed;

Merging PDF Files in Preview 5 in OS X v10.7 Lion

I recently updated to the OSX v10.7 Lion operating system. In the previous version I had, I was able to merge two or more PDF files in Preview just by dragging the thumbnail. However, in the Lion version, it is not allowing to drag one PDF file into another. It just opens them as different files in the same preview window. I need to know if someone can help me figure out how to merge these files 'cause I can't send ten different PDF files to my client. Thank you so much for any help you can provide.

Use 'Automator (applications > automator.app).
Choose 'Workflow'.
Type 'get specified finder' in the little search box.
From the list drag 'get specified finder files' into the the panel on the right. Click 'options' and check 'Show this action when the workflow runs'.
Next type 'combine pdf' in the search box, and drag 'Combine pdf pages' into the panel on the right underneath the previous one.
Save the workflow to your apps folder.
Whenever you want to merge any pdfs, click on the workflow. Add the pdfs to the dialogue box, click 'Run' in the top left of Automator. To find the resulting merged pdf, click 'Results'.
This is no doubt a clumsy way of doing it, but it works.
