I have scanned books with every page as one TIFF image and We have also put Annotations on some of the pages. Each book is of approx. 500 pages. Now I would like to Convert Images sacnned of each book to one PDF file ALONG WITH ANNOTATION. I would appreciate if anyone come forward to help me urgently.

This task is best done outside of Acrobat. Use a DTP or page make-up tool to create a 500 page book by placing the graphics on each page, and add your captions and annotations. Once you have a document ready, simply print it to PDF. Be sure to keep the document to allow revision. Aandi Inston

Thanks Aandi for your quick reply but I am thinking of a situation where we have thousands of book and through DTP tools it will be a manual work and a wastege of time. I am looking at a solution where I can print page one by one to Acrobat printer through programme (Like Visual Basic) and we get a single PDF file as a output for one book with annotaions(Which are on TIFF images).

You can do it that way. In effect, your Visual Basic program *is* the DTP tool. You have to read the TIFF files, extract the pixel and colour data, and "print" from VB. You also "print" the text. Acrobat picks up what you print. Bear in mind, though, that some DTP tools are highly automatable, so automating the assembly that way might be less work. Aandi Inston

I am using Visual basic program but I am facing one problem that every TIFF image creates individual PDF were as I want all TIFF images should goto one PDF and every time PDF writer needs file name to create PDF which I want to automate.

If your Visual Basic program reads one TIFF, prints it and closes the print stream it will make separate PDFs. You need to modify the program to open the print stream, and keep it open while printing all the files. If you close the print stream, Acrobat will always make separate PDFs. Alternatively, you could use Acrobat programmatically to join the PDFs. Aandi Inston

If you run the program over and over, printing an image each time, you have to modify it to open the print stream, process ALL files, then close the stream. Setting the page size in a Windows application is standard Windows/VB coding. Aandi Inston

What API or method is generating that error? This whole discussion seems to have wandered very far from the forum's subject... Aandi Inston
