Given a report of 221 pages, for 200 separate customers, with page break on customer...
Ultimately, I need to email selected pages out of the report to the respective customers.
Is there a way to parse the PDF's looking for a value (customer number) in a specific location, and email those pages to that customer's email address, or print only those pages to a unique file for each customer so that the files can be emailed in a separate process?
The only other alternative I see is to call the report 200 times and change the job name each time.
Hopefully, I expressed this well enough to convey my objective.
I would appreciate any suggestions you might have.
Thanks,
Email pages of report to multiple recipients

Re: Email pages of report to multiple recipients
Hi incredibill,
in a PDF it is a difficult and complex thing to find what text is in a certain position. Also splitting a 200 page PDF to 200 single page documents will be very time and memory consuming.

I hope that helps.I would say that the alternative method (to call the report 200 times and change the job name each time) is much-much better with any SDK
