Create a DDX document that builds a simple PDF document

1. Specify the resultant document by selecting New Result > PDF. In the PDF Result panel, leave the default values unchanged.

2. Drag the PDF icon from the Sources panel onto your canvas. (PDF icons from the Sources panel are called PDF sources). Position the icon under the PDF result icon added in the previous step. In the PDF Result panel, leave the default values unchanged.

3. Add two more PDF source icons as described in the previous step. Position the icons to be subordinate to the PDF result icon.

   To delete an icon, right-click the icon and select Delete.

4. Save your work and then click Validate to validate the DDX. (See Validating the DDX Document.)

5. Click Preview to view an example of the resultant document. (See Previewing the Result from a DDX Document.)

6. (Optional) Apply properties to the result and PDF source icons. (See Set PDF result and source properties.)

Here is the appearance of the canvas that the previous set of steps create. The resulting DDX document produces a PDF document that is assembled from two source PDF documents.

To see the resulting DDX document, click Source (upper-right corner). Here is the DDX source that these steps create.

<DDX xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/DDX/1.0/"> 
     <PDF result="Untitled 1"> 
       <PDF source="sourcePDF1"/> 
       <PDF source="sourcePDF2"/> 
     </PDF> 
     <?ddx-source-hint name="sourcePDF1"?> 
     <?ddx-source-hint name="sourcePDF2"?> 
</DDX>
