CFDOCUMENT has been the bane of my existence for years. Check out this simple dynamic PDF packaging code which should work...
<CFSET PAGEARRAY = [] /> <CFLOOP from="1" to="3" index="i"> <CFDOCUMENT FORMAT="PDF" NAME="PDFPAGE"> <html><body><div style="background:url(http://www.houseoffusion.com/_/hof120.gif)"><BR> </div></body></html> </CFDOCUMENT> <cfset arrayappend(PAGEARRAY,PDFPAGE) /> </CFLOOP> <CFDOCUMENT FORMAT="PDF" NAME="PDFPAGE"> <html><body><div style="background:url(http://www.houseoffusion.com/_/hof120.gif)"><BR> </div></body></html> </CFDOCUMENT> <cfset arrayappend(PAGEARRAY,PDFPAGE) /> <CFPDF action="merge" name="FINALPDF"> <cfloop from="1" to="#arraylen(PAGEARRAY)#" index="i"> <cfset pointer = PAGEARRAY[i]/> <cfpdfparam source="pointer"> </cfloop> </CFPDF> <cfcontent type="application/pdf" variable="#tobinary(FINALPDF)#"> If you run this (on CF8 or CF9 - not tried 10) you will notice that the image appears only on the first and last page! Why? Because CFDocument ignores background images after the first call when in a loop. I was able to prove this by putting the call into a CFINCLUDE inside the loop. But then, if you add a CFDOCUMENTITEM to it, it throws an error: "Routines cannot be declared more than once". According to Adobe there was a hotfix for this in CF8, although it did not work for me. Anyone know CFDoc well enough to present another solution?
