Anybody been using the recent report uploader and PDF merger?

I was able to add my radon docs with the client report.

I need to figure out how to insert a page number that would correspond to the added PDF document.

I am also trying to obtain a WDI NPMA 33 form that I can edit and add to my report upload.

Just wondering if any other guys are using and what experiences you have encountered.

David, I've only given the program to about 5 people so you probably won't get much of a response here Smiley I'm finishing up the new pages on the site then I'll email it to everyone.

I could add a feature to add page numbers but the problem is, where do you add them? It's impossible for the program to know whether it's writing over text in the document or not. It's probably better just to call them an appendix or something. In the future I'll have the merger inside the software as well which will give it more flexibility.

Dom

How do you add the appendix or something for the added pages?

I'm just saying in the program say, see WDI document in appendix or something like that. If you guys can think of some logic on decided where page numbers can go then I can implement it when I start the merge within the program.

Lets see, I need 2 pages for radon and 2 for the NPMA 33 form.
Now if you come up with a nice graph and a seperate photo section for the WDI then I would need a total of 6 pages.

There would be thermal imaging, mold and then additional pages for misc. PDF and other services like well, septic, ect.

Nice work Dom, 

Did you ever get the email for the WDI.

I will pay someone for a WDI that can be incorporated into HIP.

I found the NPMA-33 form online myself and think I could add it with about 20 hours of work. I emailed the NPMA to ask for permission to do so as it's a copyrighted document.
