I need to merge some pdf's I'm creating and am looking for the best (fastest) way to complete this. Each file is about 2.5mb and I need to meerge them into batches of 250, so an on disk merge would be best. There are no fields as they have all been flattened by this stage, but they do include images and fonts. Will MergeFilesFast be the best approach? Thanks

I used this approach:
....

pdfEng.SetTempPath('c:\tmp\');
pdfEng.ClearFileList('myList');

if FindFirst('c:\PDF_merge_files\*.pdf', faArchive, searchResult) = 0 then
begin
    repeat
      pdfEng.AddToFileList('myList', 'c:\PDF_merge_files\'+searchResult.Name);
    until FindNext(searchResult) <> 0;

    FindClose(searchResult);

end;

pdfEng.MergeFileListFast('myList', 'c:\PDF_merge_files\RESULT.PDF');
FreeAndNil(pdfEng);

....

Maybe it will be fast enough for You
