    Posted: 29 Sep 11 at 8:36PM

I am working on merging a document with form fields into a base document with also has form fields via the MergeDocument(DocumentID) function.

  The base document has some duplicated field names.  Therefore when I list all the fields I get:

            Field0

            Field1

            Field1.

            Field1.

            Field2

There are fields with the same name in the document to be merged as the base document, such as

            FieldA

            Field1

            FieldB

After I merge the documents the field list looks something like

            Field0

            Field1

            Field1.

            Field1.

            Field2

            FieldA

            Field1

            FieldB

 

While I expected the list to look like:

            Field0

            Field1

            Field1.

            Field1.

            Field1.

            Field2

            FieldA

            FieldB

If I save the merged document (via QuickPDF), open it in Adobe and save it, reopen it with QuickPDF it get the list as I expected.  Saving and reopening with QuickPDF does not get be the expect list.

What do I need to do, using QuickPDF, to get the field that is merged into the document to act like a duplicate field?

Thanks,

Hi!

It's not easy (or impossible) to handle properly with duplicate fieldnames.
Why not add the pagenumber or something else while working with the documents?

Cheers, Ingo
