Thank you Anssi, MRAB, Terry and Geremy for your replies. I've been
researching the apps you have recommended. Just curious if anyone has
used pyPdf? While testing this, it seems to work pretty well for
combining pdf files (seems to keep the annotation notes nicely also)
and pulling out the text contents. I'm not sure I'm going to be able
to find anything that can add bookmarks though. If you have used pyPdf,
would you mind sharing your thoughts about it?
Thanks.
Jay
