Form Distribution Function: Merging 2 PDFs in the Response PDF

ANSWERED

Does anyone know of a way to merge 2 dynamic PDF forms into 1 PDF with combined answers.  I have created a dynamic form and distributed the form to my users.  Each user will be required to fill out a specific section of the form and send it back to me.  When I receive the seperate distributed PDF forms that are filled out and combine them into the response PDF they remain individual documents.  Is there any way to combine the answers I receive on each form into a single PDF form?  I see I can export everything into Excel, but I would like to just combine all filled in fields from all the distributed dynamic forms into 1 PDF.  Any ideas would be appreciated :)

ACCEPTED ANSWER

Hi,

dynamic forms can't be merged.
But you can flatten them by printing via pdf printer.
Those files you than can merge with Acrobat to a single file.

Re: Form Distribution Function: Merging 2 PDFs in the Response PDF

Thanks radzmar.  I was afraid I wouldn't be able to combine them.  Thanks for the answer.  I really wanted to merge the individual distributed PDFs filled in sections into 1 master PDF file versus 1 PDF with all the indivudal forms.  It appears that this is not a possibility.  Thanks for the answer.
