I had another form to fill in and I did use the printout then scan back
as JPG to modify the export back out as PDF proceedure but I was
thinking instead of sending "n" number of fillied in PDF files why not
concateneate them into one PDF with multiple pages... After all my goal
is to make filling in PDF forms zero monetary cost AND make the result a
quality PDF but also a no brainer/no questions for the WinDoze user on
the other end. I found this web page with an interesting discussion of
the problem and a response that has a shell script that does the job.
One thing the different methods do not seem to do when concatenating PDF
files is preserve the ability to search and so forth. For most forms
this capability doesn't need to be included with returned forms I
suspect. However it would be a nice capability if you had the need to
concatenate PDF's for your own use such as command summaries of various
types, etc. Does anyone know what it would take to retain, after
modification, features like searching PDF's short of Adobe software?
