Merge/Conbine files into PDF

How can I merge diferent files into one PDF file using the Acrobat 8.0? I've looked in the Distiller and Acrobat SDK documentation, but I cannot find an API to do this. Which languages support these kinds of operations? Thanks for your help.


My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 8 / Windows

Re: Merge/Conbine files into PDF

Assuming that you are using Acrobat 8 professional, you would do this from
"Create PDF" on the toolbar, and then select "from multiple files."  You can then make a PDF package, or one PDF file.  Be sure your end user has the right version of Reader (7 or above) to be able to open a PDF package.

Hope this helps...

Re: Merge/Conbine files into PDF

Did you ever find an API or way to do this?  I am trying to do the same thing, create one PDF by combining multiple files and I would like to automate this using VB.

Acrobat JavaScript supports it.

<DOC>.insertPages() method.  Page 318 of the Acrobat JavaScript API Reference. 

The SDK also supports it.  PDDocInsertPages.  Take another look at the SDK.

Being brand new to Acrobat, please tell me what SDK is?  I will be doing this within Access 2000, using VB code.
