> You have two PDFs, one after the other, in the same PDF file. Actually that's what we wanted :), but now i restructured the code according to the Concatenate sample class and it seems to work now.
But wouldn't it be nice to have an api where you simply put whole, already existing pdf files into another and have a new one as an outcome? This "get number of pages of pdf" and add each page to the result seemed not very intuitive to me. But i am a itext newbie anyway :) Thanks again, Chris > > Paulo > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On >> Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2007 11:44 AM >> To: [email protected] >> Subject: Re: [iText-questions] adding several pdfs causes >> problems (broken, corrupt?) >> >> Thanks for you rapid response, Paulo. >> >>> First thing to do is to save the pdf to a file in the >> server instead of >>> sending it to browser.
