Merge a bunch of Pdfs into a resulting one with Prawn

Retour au blog

You have a bunch of Pdf documents and you want to concatenate them all into a resulting one, using the Prawn gem and this small piece of code, it’s now easily doable !

require 'prawn'

pdf_file_paths = [1.pdf, 2.pdf] Prawn::Document.generate(result.pdf, {:page_size => 'A4', :skip_page_creation => true}) do |pdf| pdf_file_paths.each do |pdf_file| if File.exists?(pdf_file) pdf_temp_nb_pages = Prawn::Document.new(:template => pdf_file).page_count (1..pdf_temp_nb_pages).each do |i| pdf.start_new_page(:template => pdf_file, :template_page => i) end end end end

If you want this feature fully integrated in the next Prawn version, just support my issue on Github !
