   Is there any way to concatenate 2 PDF files into one ?
I've seen DACapturePage(), but DADrawCapturatepage works only within the same file..

TIA

P.S. working in C++ unsing COM Object...

	Thank you, sorry for the silly question, I was searching for concatenate, I thought that merge was related to 'blending' together pages... Is there a 'direct way' to superimpose a page over a PDF or do I have to load the layout and draw it over single page ? Thanxs again. P.S. any news about COM library ?

	I've implemented MergeFiles ( V. 5.22 COM under VS2005 SP1) but I cant understand where is the problem. Giving the code (FileExist is a function to test document availability): ASSERT( FileExist( "D:\\CSI\\Studio\\documenti\\libromatricola\\bollato\\010\\000\\0100000256.bak")); ASSERT( FileExist( "D:\\CSI\\Studio\\documenti\\libromatricola\\bollato\\010\\000\\0100000257.bak")); CQuickPdf pdf; VERIFY( pdf.MergeFile( "D:\\CSI\\Studio\\documenti\\libromatricola\\bollato\\010\\000\\0100000256.bak", "D:\\CSI\\Studio\\documenti\\libromatricola\\bollato\\010\\000\\0100000257.bak", "D:\\CSI\\Studio\\libromatricola\\test.pdf")); The function return TRUE, the resulting file has two pages, but the second is a copy of the first... of course the concent of doc 256.pdf and 257.pdf is different. I've hardcoded all strings to be sure that source docs are really different.. Any idea of how to spot the problem ? TIA

	I've probably found where the problem comes from... both document have filelds (with Courier new font - maybe it's important), if the fields are flattened after being compiled the function works.. So can be related to editable fields. Hope this help.
