Hi,
I wonder if someone could help me?
I would like to merge pdf files in one folder (folder1.png)with pdf files in different folder (folder2.png) based on data in excel (merge.png). For an example, merge 1.pdf in folder1 with 421.pdf,422.pdf,423.pdf in folder2 like it says in the table. And 2.pdf in folder1 with 424.pdf, 425.pdf in folder2 and so on...
Is that possible?
Thank you,
Jasna
Hey Jasna,
I don’t think FME can merge PDFs natively.
However, you can achieve this using a command line tool together with the SystemCaller transformer.
You should look at GhostScript or PDFtk
Alternatively, you could also use Python with PyPDF2.
Here’s the tutorial on how to install a Python package in FME’s Python environment:

Thank you,
I will try to do that.
