[CASE OPENED] Compound PDF of Compound PDFs
I have multiple Compound PDFs that I need to merge into 1 dynamic PDF. The existing PDFs have between 1 to 12 components per page and between 1 to 21 pages each. If I use the canvas and add existing it will only bring all the existing items into the current layout instead of either Including or Execute the item.

Since this is dynamic I tried to execute each as a stand alone and hold them off then merge them into an overall file. I also tried to create each page as a PDF then convert it to an image and the presentation was not has an high enough grade.

This will be done in Report Caster and at present we are at 8.1.04.

Thanks for any help.

Can you able to make 1 huge compound PDF? Compound PDF of Compound PDF might not work.

I use to modify the code instead of adding those in to the canvas. That way you can do it little faster.

Hope it helps.

I need it to be dynamic. Example: I have 3 pages each page has multiple components. The report will uses these 3 pages to create a compound report with 21 pages based upon parameters that are stored on a table. The next report will create a compound report with 10 pages using the same 3 pages. There are multiple reports that uses these same 3 pages based upon the information that is stored on a table.
