Hi Clifford

Out of interest did you ever find an easy way to do this?

I have a different requirement.  It requires splitting one or more PDFs 
into pages and reassembling the pages to make two or more files.

I have looked at a few command line tools wqhich will do the job but 
would prefer a built-in library or ActiveX solution.  I have not found 
one at a reasonable price so far...

Hi Regan
have a look at gdpicture.com, its a nice activex control. I use the 8.5 
version - only for showing pictures and PDF-documents - but with the new 
version, PDF manipulating is possible,too.

Hi,

I use QuickPDF (http://www.quickpdflibrary.com/) with my HBPrintPDF 
class ( class framework)
With QuickPDF you can create or manipulate all kind of needed 
information. By now I only support the 7.x version, but the 8.x will 
come soon.

Regards
Hubert

We just currently generate the PDF's one at a time and attach to a email 
via asinet.  Has worked great but it is a specially defined task for 
each report we want to do.

PDF-eXplode does work well but is somewhat pricey.

I have investigated various PDF tools like the PDF converter from 
AmyUni, or the QuickPDF library from debenu, which only costs $449 and 
appears to allow you to do what we would want.

Cliff.
