Merge pdf page

Level 1

Hi everyone !

I would like to merge pdf documents : I have a client who wants to send a PDF to several people. Each person puts his annotations (like comments) into the document.

Then, I get all pdf (always the same, with several comments) and merge it in one PDF with all comments.

I thought I was able to do it with a simple DDX file, but I can't find a way to do it !

How can I do it ?

Thank's for your help !

FYI, the configuration is : LiveCycle ES + Reader Extensions (I don't think that's help).

(I hope I post in the right place to ask this.)

I find a way to do this, but I still have a problem : some comments which are near the same position in 2 or more PDF are not displayed nor assembled. To be exact, only one of them are kept in the output file.

Have you any idea how to solve this ?

Thanks for your help !

FYI, this is how i assemble them :

<Comments result="allComments.xfdf" format="XFDF">

     <PDF source="doc2" />

     <PDF source="doc3" />

</Comments>

<PDF result="output.pdf" save="FastWebView">

     <PDF source="doc1" />

     <Comments source="allComments.xfdf" />

</PDF>
