You cannot merge PDF files by using the OOo API. But you can try iText for this task: http://www.lowagie.com/iText/. I'm using it for that myself. |

Yes, correct.

That's absolutely correct, too. BUT, that was not the question you asked in your previous post in this thread. Anyway, do it like I do it: Load your DOC documents, insert data as you like (I insert text at several bookmarks), save your documents separately as PDF files. Use OOo's UNO API for all these steps. Finally merge all the separate PDF files into one PDF file with iText. |
