Attachments not visible after merging PDF files

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,

   I am merging PDF files together. I tried both MergeFileList and MergeFileListFast, but the results are the same: Attachments of the first file appear OK. Attachments in then second or more files are included in the destination file, but are not visible in the Attachment Panel.

   Does anyone know if it's a limitation of the library, or if I am doing something wrong.

   Thanks!

	Hi Michel! I've made the same experiences. So i would say it's a limitation of the library ;-) The attachments are included (check the filesize) but you can see only the attachment from the first pdf. I think the possible attachments were simply forgotten while developing the merge-functions... I'll post this in the official support section. Cheers, Ingo

	Hi Michel! This is what support has written to me: "... At the moment file attachments aren't copied across, but in the new planned setup function there will be an option for this. There isn't an ETA for this new feature yet, but we'll be informed as soon as they do. ..." Cheers, Ingo
