Hi,

I have to merge two different pdf into a single double-page.

Any idea to merge the files side-by-side? By pitsop script?

Thanks for your help.

If you want to impose the merged file you would need Inpo2, Quite Hot or callas pdfToolbox Server. PitStop Server cannot impose.

You could use PDF Enhancer to perform the 2-up imposition. Here's a sample configuration that imposes 2 pages on a Letter sized page.

Hi Benoit,



callas pdfToolbox was already mentioned here, but to make it concrete, the following link points to the procedure to split pages saved with reader spreads from InDesign in two:

What you want to do is the opposite action called "Reader Spreads". The action is available in the desktop product and can be automated with pdfToolbox Server inside of Switch.



Kind regards,

David.
