I want to do the same thing as Project # 296009
We would like to have a web page designed that will accept user input to determine what pdf's are needed for inclusion, and then the application would crawl out and grab them and compile the pdf file. The online UI is what would separate this from the built in Merge feature of Acrobat.
Back End:
Need the ability to upload the PDFs (maybe just a folder on an FTP site)
Front End: (would go on the website)
-UI that allows to simply click on check box fields to select the pdf files that are to be included.
-Compile button that will merge the selected files and generate the new pdf file.
I would do this project granted you will be ok with using GPLd libraries for this project. As I dont see the point reinvent the whole wheel. Look PM for details.
