Re: [iText-questions] Advice sought on using Split, Concat and
EncryptLeonard,
Sounds great. The only drwback is that I know almost nothing about Java.
I'm now going to see if there are any alterntives available out there.
Cheers

My recommendation would be to write your OWN command line tool (in Java)
that calls on iText to do EXACTLY what you need it to do...

Leonard,
I agree, and that would be my plan. However, I do need to find a
command-line way of achieving what I want. I've looked through the book for
examples, and can see that the closest I get is '...tools.plugins.Concat'
etc, but there is (or I haven't yet found it) any clear exapmples of how to
actually do it.
Cheers

And since youre moving platforms, then moving to the latest version
of iText would also be a good thing as there have been NUMEROUS
improvements...

There are several questions here. As for the problem with Acrobat 9
files at the time a file was requested and denied, we're not psychic to
solve things that we can't see. You are insisting a lot on the Toolbox,
perhaps expecting that it's some kind of command line utility. The Toolbox
is a showcase for some of the iText library capabilities. You should look
at the examples at http://1t3xt.info/ for ways to do it.
