I’m starting on a small rails app and i need to generate a report in
pdf format.
i’ve generated pdfs before using pdf::writer without much problems, but
for this project the company sent me a pdf ‘watermark’ (or background
template) that they want the report to be printed on… instead of
having them stock a bunch of the template stationary and have that
paper used in the printer that the reports will be printed from i want
to merge it with the pdf my app is generating.
anyway to do this? i know that pdf-writer is somewhat limited… is
there another pdf gem that might be a better fit? if neither of these
works what about an external program that could merge these properly
that could be run with a system call?
Any help would be greatly appreciated… thanks in advance
