Merge pdf files

Ignition

I saw a post about combining two pdf files into one.
Somme people recommended to use the PDFtk Server.

I looked for the information but I can't use the PDFtk Server.

I'am trying to do it but I can't find the solution.

Somme one have an example script to gather several pdf pages into one? .

Why?

I use the command line tool from PDFtk Free. I don't have examples from within Ignition, but a typical command line would look like this:

pdftk A=SourceFile1.pdf B=SourceFile2.pdf cat A B output OutputFile.pdf

The cat verb accepts many variations to select page ranges, odd or even sets, and rotations.

How will this work in a scripted gateway environment?

This looks like a spam posting.

It is not. PDFtk is a legitimate command line tool whose open-source version is quite useful. It absolutely can be used with java's ProcessBuilder to manipulate PDF files on a gateway.

Edit: Ah, someone else already clipped the spam.
