Hi,

I have for several years, been using iText on a Windows NT server in a PHP
application to split, join and encrypt pdfs.

I have been using an early version of iText and j2re1.4.2_16. The usage has
been by executing a shell command such as:

$z = exec("java -cp".$ipath."com.lowagie.tools.concat_pdf
".$filename_cover." ".$filename_temp." ".$filename);

where $filename_cover is a single-page PDF created on the fly by PHP,
$filename_temp is an existing PDF on the server filesystem, or uploaded by
the client, and $filename is the output file.

Some of my clients have recently raised issues where they have been
attempting to put a cover on a document created using Acrobat v9, and iText
has thrown an error.  I did raise this at the time, but the only response
pointed me in the direction of the iText Toolbox, saying that the tools that
I was using were no longer part of the main iText core.

I am now moving my server away from Windows Nt and onto Linux (Debian). I am
quite keen to resolve this problem as part of the move, but can find little
in terms of examples of how to use the Toolbox within my existing PHP
framework.

I'm a Linux newbie, so if someone does have a solution, could they please be
gentle and provide as clear an example as possible.

MTIA
