Merging two pdf files into one file?

[malin_erika]

Hi!

I am using web services (with .NET) to work with Adobe LiveCycle. I
want to merge two pdf files into a single pdf file. Is the only way to
do this creating a DDX file and use with Assembler Services?

When running my code I get the following message:

Error: com.adobe.livecycle.assembler.client.ProcessingException: ALC-
ASM-S00-002: Failed to execute the DDX - error messages provided.

Does this mean my DDX file is incorrect? My DDX looks like this (name
of server is changed):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<DDX xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/DDX/1.0/">
<PDF result="\\blablabla.myserver.com\d$\pdfmerge
\NewMergedPdfFile.pdf">
<PDF source="\\blablabla.myserver.com\d$\pdfmerge
\ContentTestPage1.pdf" />
<PDF source="\\blablabla.myserver.com\d$\pdfmerge\Test.pdf" />
</PDF>
</DDX>

The pdf-files are on a different server then Adobe LiveCycle. Can this
make a diffenerence?

If you want to I can give you the full .NET code.


Best regards,
Malin.

I had the same problem once.
what I did was to remove the <?xml ...> declaration in the DDX.
Try it out and please post your feedback

Thanks for your reply!

I found an example on how to do here:

Now its working (with the XML-tag)! :-)

This is an excellent example.  This one was written by Scott MacDonald.  Scott and I are going to be co-teaching a hands on technical session at Adobe MAX 2010 (Oct 22-27) in Los Angeles called “Extending LC for Java Developers” which will use some of these quick starts.  We plan to blitzkrieg it by getting attendees to check out a process, validate it works, write a custom component, package it, call it from the process, re-upload the *.lca and then programmatically invoke the modified process.

Details:

If anyone on this list is able to make it to the MAX event, please heavily consider doing so.  The LC ES track this year is the best we’ve ever had but it is filling up fast.

Hi Duane,

 

Are there similar sessions but for .Net Developers.

I could not find any .NET ones.  This is a missing piece for LC ES however, Scott MacDonald has made several tutorials on how to integrate from a .NET environment.  If you show up for this, Scott and I will take the extra time to show you how to do this.

BTW – this is now over half full!  Anyone who wants to reserve a spot, would recommend doing it fast.
