Help importing multiple PDF files without naming them applying a tfm template and then appending them

Hey! I have many pdf files named differently. I’d like to find a way to loop through all of them without having to name each of them individually (there are too many of them) and then append them all. I already saw Bryan’s post about how to sort of do this but I’d have to name each file and since I have like fifty of them, I’d like to find a quicker way to do it without naming each of them.

Thanks!

Hi Daniela,

Are you talking about doing this in a script or through IDEA.

If you are importing it through IDEA have you tried using the multi-file import that comes with the SmartAnalyzer Utility package, you can find it in the IDEA Passport.  Just install it and you will find one of the apps is a multi-file import.  You can select multiple pdf files so long as they all use the same template. Import them and then perform the append.
