texte = Thierry, Here's an example using ColdFusion that I'm sure can be adapted to WebCatalog. I'm currently using this CF/FDF method with CF and it works great. http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/msg32040.html Several years ago I built a dynamic PDF in WebCatalog by converting the PDF to ASCII and then putting my WC markup {[variable]) in the PDF, and then feed it to WC with an [include]. I would not however reccomend this method because any change needed to the original PDF requires one to do the entire conversion to ASCII and replace variables each time.
