PDF merger -Revisited

Based on post  https://community.accelrys.com/message/2237

I have revisited the implementation and here it goes.

Name: PDFMerger
Author: Pedro Gomez Fabre
Version: 2.0
Created: 11/2013

Purpose: Merge PDF files into a single PDF document.

Improvements:

- Now deployed as package all dependencies are included as part of the package.

- Fix issue showing empty document when files containted spaces on their file name.

- Includes a PDF writer and sample file for test.

Requirements:

Pipeline Pilot 8.0 or above

AEP Server Windows or Linux
Limitations: Not known

Keywords: PDF, merge, collate

Installation:

- Download the appropiate version for your OS.

- Copy the zip file into /apps folder

- Unzip the content of the file.

Linux:

- Change directory to   /linux_bin/

- Source the environment (source ppvars.sh)

- Apply the package ./pkgutil -i AccelrysSupport/PDFmerger

Windows:

- Navigate to \bin

- Apply the package: pkgutil.exe -i AccelrysSupport/PDFmerger

To avoid multiple packages, I have selected the 32bits version but tested on 64 bits environment proved fine.

After installation:

- You may need to Refresh/restart your client if you cannot see "Protocols\Accelrys Support\PDF merger" folder

- Open PDF merger Example

- Run it!

Hope this is useful.
