TOP TIPS - September 2005

How to merge files of the same name from different folders
Products required are: Rapid PDF Count & Append PDF

Folder One contains A.PDF, B.PDF, C.PDF
Folder Two contains A.PDF, B.PDF, C.PDF
Folder Three contains A.PDF, B.PDF, C.PDF
For Example all A.PDF need combining to create A.PDF in Folder Four

1. With AppendPDF e.g. command line:
del c:\folder4\A.pdf
AppendPdf c:\folder4\A.pdf c:\folder1\A.pdf
AppendPdf c:\folder4\A.pdf c:\folder2\A.pdf
AppendPdf c:\folder4\A.pdf c:\folder3\A.pdf

Above would append folder1, folder2, folder3 A.pdf to folder4\A.pdf

2. To create the DOS script on lot's of files run Rapid PDF Count add one set of files to the list and select create script from the menu Report/Scripts menu.
In the middle edit box enter:
AppendPdf "c:\folder4\[FILETITLE]" "c:\folder1\[FILETITLE]"
AppendPdf "c:\folder4\[FILETITLE]" "c:\folder2\[FILETITLE]"
AppendPdf "c:\folder4\[FILETITLE]" "c:\folder3\[FILETITLE]"

Then click create button or run the script.
