    Automate PDF Creation from Multiple Data Sources

    ShafferRM Community Member

      I'm not very familar with the advanced features of Acrobat or other Adobe publishing solutions, so I apologize for the broad question.

       

      We currently have data in a SQL database that we would like to extract and assemble into a single PDF document, along with supporting documents that are in a file share.  Prior to each record being extracted, we'd like a summary page which is pulled from another data source, an excel file.  This is part of a review process.  We want to make sure the review process is mobile friendly. 

       

      We are currently trying something that creates a nice Word docment that contains hyperlinks to the content on file shares.  It is functional, but mobile devices require a VPN connection back to the environment to access the linked content.  If we could assemble all the documents into a single PDF with a linked Table of Contents, that would make it easier. 

       

       

      I'm not sure if I should be looking at Acrobat with javascripts, or LiveCycle, or something entirely different.  Any direction you can provide would be appreciated.


      Thanks,

      Ryan
