Re: adding logo's to report (looks horrible)

[Bradley Stone <bvstone@xxxxxxxxx>]

Tim,

Our SPLTOOL software has functionality that can take one PDF and add
another as an "overlay" which would add a logo, grid lines for a
PO/Invoice, etc.

We have examples here:
http://www.fieldexit.com/forum/display?threadid=12

And here:
http://www.bvstools.com/spltool.html.

So, while our SPLTOOL can convert to PDF as well as add another PDF as an
overlay (one that contains your logo) it also has standalone commands that
can add the overlay itself.

The overlay needs to be PDF and in your IFS.  You should be able to take
your word doc and save it as PDF, or "print" it to a virtual printer that
creates a PDF (we use PrimoPDF for this, which is free).

Feel free to contact me offline for more information.  (bvstone at gmail
dot com or bvstone at bvstools dot com).
