You can try out TExtraDevices which exports PDF and 10 other formats.
A demo and manual are at www.waler.com

Hi James:
I'm currently use TExtraDevices and it work great.
The problem is I want to use report builder to print several pages of
document which
part of it is already in pdf format.
Thanks,

Hi,

Sorry, but viewing PDF files inside a report is not supported by
ReportBuilder. You may be able to find a tool that converts PDF files to
images or .rtf files to and then load them to a TppImage or TppRichText
component on a report.

Thanks,

Hello,

I am a bit unclear about what you are trying to accomplish. Do you want to
merge a number of existing reports together and print them as a PDF file, or
are you trying to merge actual PDF files into a report?

Hi Nico:
I'm trying to merge actual PDF files to the report.

Hello,

Sorry, but there is no built-in way to merge PDF files into a report. You
could possibly find an application that convertes PDF files to RTF and then
add the RTF files to a TppRichText component in a report as a work around.
