Hi,
I've an existing app - Windows service, which generates multiple PDF
files (Data retrieved from cubes and then Exported to pdf using
Crystal) and PDFLib merges all the pdf files together into one file,
but the problem is, as mine is a multithreaded app, the PDFLib fails
badly and it allows me to select only a couple of Reports(which
contains individual reports) but I want to allow user to select more
than 5 reports or so, so that they can get all the 5 PDF files (which
includes 100-200 individual pdf files).
How can I remove the dependency of this third party tool for merging
the PDF files, is there a way by which we can do it directly through
Crystal Reports, i.e. merge 2 or more reports into a single PDF file.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
NS

Crystal alone can't merge pdf files. However, consider 3rd-party
Crystal tools (see list at: http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html).
My Visual CUT software provides a command line api with options to
specify unlimited pdf files to be merged, add Bookmarks (by adding
formulas to the Crystal report), a Table of Contents, Page numbers,
etc.
