PDF Distributor
|
Separate PDF Files and Deliver them via eMail. PDF Distributor is a program that will separate a multi-page text searchable PDF and distribute it via email based upon its contents. It is ideally suited for distributing reports and statements without printing and mailing.
Instead of using a conventional printer, the user prints the statement or report with a program that creates a text searchable PDF. This can be done with the standard version of Acrobat or a freeware program such as PDF Creator. Once created, PDF Distributor will split the file into separate documents based upon a unique word that appears on the first page of each document, such as "Statement" or "Page 1".
Once the file has been split the program will read a specific area of the document that relates to where it is to be delivered, such as a person's name or department. After the program has this value it will be used to lookup a corresponding email address in Excel or a csv file. When there is a match the file will be delivered via email. If there is no match it will be placed in a file folder for errors and details will be written to a log file.
Creating the Text Searchable PDF
From your application print your document using the print driver that comes with Acrobat. If Acrobat is not available search on line for "PDF Creator" which is an open source program (freeware) that creates PDF Files. When creating the file the user should ideally make them less than 1000 pages.
