Acrobat 8.0 Merging pdfs to one pdf, first pdf of different size

I have about 60 jpegs that I would like to convert to single pdf file.
When I try to make one pdf from these files, a binder is made without any errors but when I open this binder, the first pdf is of original size and all rest are of 25% size of the original. I tried converting each jpeg to pdf individually and then merging into one, results in same story.
Can anyone see whats going on here? I am using default settings at every point.
Many thanks in advance.

Are you sure it really is 25% of the original size? It's possible the image is of different sizes, and while in a binder, they will show them in relation to the other pages, not of their actual size.

Combining Contents of 2 PDFs into a single page PDF

I need to combine elements of two different PDFs into one, single page PDF.
One PDF is Template of sorts with headers to be edited, the other PDF is a non-ocr scan that includes text and images.
I've found no way to copy and paste on a single page b.t two PDFs. I've tried pasting into an inserted page and then dragging it up or cutting and pasting within the document (with the intention of deleting the unneeded second page) with no luck.
This seems like it should be such a no brainer. Open 1st PDF, Open 2nd PDF, make selection Ctrl C, go to 1st PDF, place cursor where desired, Ctrl V.   But it doesn't work at all in an intuitive way like any other document program where you can cut and paste with ease b/t documents and even b/t programs.
So instead, I've copied the part of the image PDF I want into the original word doc of the template, then created a PDF from that. However, when I try to tell Acrobat to make the entire document OCR, it tells me it can’t b/c it contains renderable text (the header information, I’m assuming). If I run the OCR on a PDF containing just the image, it does it no problem.
What is the best way to bring these two documents together in way that results in a single page, completely searchable PDF?

Unfortunately, another $700 software purchase is not in the cards and I can’t wrap my mind around why it should be necessary. It seems so nonsensical to me that Acrobat has all these advanced functions for editing, combining, making portfolios etc., yet can not perform the simple task of cutting and pasting between two documents.
While Adobe support was putting me on hold, I doodled up some generic sample documents that I could upload here to illustrate the problem. Hopefully, someone can play with these and give me a workable solution.
The first PDF, Original Acme Clip, represents the file that is provided to me by our clipping service. They cut the item out of a magazine, put the customized info into their standard template in whatever word processing program they use, printed it out, pasted the magazine clip to that page and then scanned the hard copy to PDF-as an image only PDF, it is not optimized for optical character recognition and is not searchable.
The second PDF, Final Acme PDF, represents the file that our workflow eventually ends up as-a PDF containing only the info we want, formatted as we want, in which both the headers and clip content are searchable. To get there currently, we print out the Original ACME Clip, type the relevant info into the headers of a Word template that includes our logo and standard footer, print out the Word template page, manually cut out the scanned image from the PDF, and paste it onto the template paper. The resulting paper is scanned into the Final Acme PDF and OCR is run on the whole thing to make it all searchable.
What we’d like to do is skip all the printing, and manual cutting and pasting. Any and all suggestions for work in Acrobat 9 Pro to do this would be gratefully appreciated!

Convert different types of files and merged them into one pdf

Hi, everyone. I'm girl from China.
There is folder containing severl files of different types, like doc, msg, jpeg etc. And I want to convert and merge them into one pdf following a certain order. I know that PDFmaker can do that nicely, but the problem is that I have like 3000+ fodlders that requires the same work.
I want to do it with VBA and Acrobat. I have a Acrobat XI Standard Version and a perfect license, by the way
And I have got the code(Thanks, Karl Heinz Kremer) of merging two pdfs into one, but how can I convert them into pdf first?
Thank you very much.
If I can finish this, I would like to publish my code on this forum.

Wow, that's great news. But how should I add the Action?
1. There is no action named "Covert files into Pdf" in the tools panel....
And if I write Javascript code to do this action. How should I write it?
app.openDoc({
cPath: "/c/temp/myPic.jpg",
bUseConv: true
These code only works when I specify the path of the file.
If you know how, pls tell me..........

Can I merge 3 jpeg files into one PDF on one page?

Can I merge 3 jpeg files into one PDF on one page? For example: scanned newspaper article was too big for one scan process, I had to scan article 3 times. Can I merge these 3 jpegs and position them like columns?

Do you have Acrobat? If so, you can use the Add Image tool to place your images on the page where you want them to be. Alternatively, you can combine all 3 to a single PDF and then send that PDF to the PDF Printer, selecting the Multiple option to get them to appear on a single page of the new file.

Text issues merging multiple pdfs into one pdf

Hello, when I merge multiple pdfs into one pdf document my text is missing or garbled. I spent hours yesterday trying to figure this out, from insuring the text was embedded and print setting were correct. Please help!!
Using Adobe Pro 9.0
Thanks,
Faith

Acrobat Pro is the application you use for working with PDFs, making minor edits, combining multiple PDFs into a single file, extracting or replacing pages, doing fancier form work than ID has the ability to produce, and even creating PDF from a number of other file formats. I'm not sure your question about maintaining the quality of your photos is really applicable -- it would depend on how youare getting from the photo to PDF to begin with. The use of Acrobat in and of itself won't be the determiner.
That said, I couldn't live without Acrobat Pro in my workflow. Since you are on CS5.5 you have a couple of options. You could purchase a subscription to Creative Cloud (at a discount for the first year), which would give you access not only to Acrobat, but all of the other programs and tools included in the suite, but you pay a monthly or yearly fee, or you can buy a standalone perpetual license to either Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Standard (I didn't realize Standard was still an option, and you might not need all the features of Pro -- you can compare at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/buying-guide.html).

Is there any way to merge multiple pdf into one?

Hi,
Is any there any way to convert different frame files into pdf and merge them into one programmatically using FDK11.
Like, for example,
a.fm, b.fm, c.fm to abc.pdf
Thanks,
Venkat

You got the point.
My actual requirement is to convert a Frame book to PDF. But for some reason the O/P PDF gets cropped out when i pass a Frame book as Input whereas it works good with Frame files.
Thanks,
Venkat

How to setup a four page PDF in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to print only one of four pages?

Hello,
I have a request from a end-user to setup a four page PDF in Adobe Acroat 9 PDF to only allow printing of one specific page of the four page PDF.
The end-user will abe able to view the four pages in the PDF - however - the PDF would only allow printing of one page. The PDF would need to be pre-set for the end-user. Is there a setting Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to allow this type of specific pre-set printing.
I appreciate your help. I hope to hear from you soon.

No, Acrobat can't do that.

Wrongly transformed the sentences of left and right paragraphs into one sentence in PDF files to txt files by Acrobat 9 Pro

I found that the when transforming PDF files into TXT files by Acrobat 9 Pro, the Acrobat will wrongly transform the sentences of the left hand side and right hand side paragraphs into one sentence, while the correct format should be the later sentence follows the former sentence in each paragraph.
An example PDF is : http://cardiovascres.oxfordjournals.org/content/cardiovascres/45/1/200.full.pdf
Is there any solution for this problem? Or should I use other software (or other version of Acrobat) to solve the problem? Thank you.

PDF is not a word processor file format.
It has no "styles", "format", "layout", "columns", "rows", "tables", etc.
PDF writers paint the content to the canvas that is the PDF page.
Depending on what was used and how it operates this painting can be like a paint by numbers affair.
ISO 32000-1:2008, the ISO standard for PDF explains it all.
So, when exporting to text from your PDF the progression is left to right, top down.
Remember, PDF has no awareness of "columns". What we see is our construct not PDF's.
What you and I see as two columns with a specific read order is our imposition.
What is on the PDF page is simply a line of text characters.
That is how it is with all versions of Acrobat. Applications can only make use of what the file format supports eh.
What to do?
Master content in a logical hierarchy in the authoring file.
Always use the build-in Headings for Headings.
Use the built-in "table" feature.
Use a PDF writer process that is compliant with the ISO standard and that supports proper output of Tagged PDF.
A well-formed Tagged PDF will export properly.
Two key design considerations for Tagged PDF are:
(1) Support Accessible PDF
(2) Support Export of PDF page content.
What constitutes a "well-formed tagged PDF?"
This would be a PDF that is ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1 compliant.
Be well...

How to merge two pages of a PDF into one

How do I merge two pages (within the same PDF file) into one page? For example, I have a scanned 3x5 card; the front of the card is on page one and the back of the card is on page two. How do I merge them so the front and back of the card is on the same page? Thanks!

Phillip,
It works well because InDesign is highly reliable for placing PDF files (you can even choose which layer):
And it uses the common PDF Export presets for the Creative Suite. I've used it very reliably to place ads saved as PDF, and including them in a program guide, then exporting the entire project as one PDF file.

Acrobat Reader DC one source of pdf attached files

I have a MacBook Pro and found that since updating to Acrobat Reader DC there is one source of pdf attached files that do not open (I just get a black screen).
I do not have this problem with my iPad nor with an iMac also running the same reader.
I cannot find any 'switches' that will resolve this problem. I get an error message saying that Acrobat Reader DC could not open "File reference" because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged. This cannot be the case as this file opens on other computers so it has to be localised to my MacBook Pro. Other pdf files open normally and I am at a lost in deciding as to what is going wrong and how to rectify.

If the same attachment can be viewed successfully on other devices, then it must get corrupted during the download on that one machine.
People should really stop sending e-documents as attachments, it is much safer using a file sharing service such as Acrobat.com - upload and share the document, then send the download link via email.

Merge Files to One PDF

Hello All...
When I merge a Word doc. with an existing PDF (to create a single PDF), how can I get the Word doc. to have the same size paper layout and same margin? So it all looks the same? I have had marginal success with playing with Word paper layouts before I create a single PDF; however, is there a way that PDF does it all automatically for one Identical PDF creation?
Thanks

If you set the magnification for the completed PDF, might that do it?
File - Properties - Initial view, then choose 'Fit Page' for example. Or, I like 'Fit Width' - play around to see what works.
At least that should give a more consistent look. But as you say, unless you adjust the Word page layouts, there will likely be some variation.

How do I turn off automatic bookmark creation when combining multiple PDFs into one?

When I combine multiple PDFs into one, I need Adobe to use the CUSTOM bookmarks I created in the original PDFs. I do NOT want the additional PDF name as a bookmark in this instance. Is there a way to turn this option OFF in Acrobat Professional? I have version 9.

You can not automatically turn off this action nor can you remove the 'file_name.pdf' heading, but you could add a button or menuitem to remove the 'file_name.pdf' from the bookamarks. Yes, it is one more step to perform when combining PDFs, but is you want until you have all of the PDFs combined you only need do it once.
Removing filename bookmarks created by Acrobat by Sean Stewart
From the above article:
"With the release of Acrobat 6 came the ability to create a composite (binder) document from multiple files, (i.e. File > Create PDF > From Multiple Files.) When this is done, Acrobat automatically inserts a new top level bookmark at the start of each new file. The bookmark title will correspond to the source filename of the source file. While this level of separation can be helpful, it is counterproductive when the user wants the bookmark tree in the merged document to be continuous.
"Here's a sample JavaScript to remove the top level bookmarks from the bookmark tree. This script will look for a ".pdf" extension to decide whether to remove the bookmark."
With some additional coding you can add menu item or toolbar button.

VDP / Data Merge - Multiple PDF's (1 record / 1 pdf)

Hello all,
2 part questions (second one I think is more file system related)
Part 1 - I have created a document in indesign and am using data merge. The merge works well but the PDF that is created a single pdf file with all my merged pages within it. I am wondering if there is a way to have mutliple pdf files created. If my data has 10 rows of information is there a way to run the merge and get 10 single page pdf files?
**nevermind pt 2...google search just turned up some good hits.**
Part 2 - If I can get the merge to be single pdfs is there a way to name the file based on a column of my data file? I am assuming that indesign cannot do this. I am a pc user and have not found a batch rename software based on variable data content.
Thanks in advance
Ren

ok so to better understand why I did it this way I will explain the situation. I work for a copier reseller and we carry many models. My goal is to re-brand our sample files and include as a footer the following information (filename / machine printed on / paper stock printed on). This method initally seemed like the right approach using variable data but I have changed my thoght since then and decided to used the combo box interactive filed which would eliminate the need for 50+ pdfs per sample.
My steps tho prior to changing my mind was as follows.
Variable Data Merge:
create my indesign doc and setup the data merge.
my data file had field for filename (which was part static and part dynamic), machine model and paper stocks.
exported the pdf (which is a single PDF with multiple pages)
Splitting the PDF to single page PDFs:
Open the multiple page PDF in Acrobat X and use the extract feature tools>pages
Select your location and the newly created single page PDF will created files using the following naming convention (original filename 1.pdf, original filename 2. pdf, etc....)
Renaming the PDF's
Since indesign uses row order from the data file to create the pages the multiple page PDF also has the same order as my data file. When I split the pages using the extract function the number scheme used my acrobat kept the files in order also (page 1 was file1, page 2 was file 2, etc....)
Using my inital data file (with my filenames that I have merged onto the indesign file) I created another spreadsheet copying the filenames onto a column (column B).
Column A consist of the filenames that the extract tool created (note that the file xtension needs to be listed also for both column A & B, in this case .pdf)
In Excel go to VBA (alt+F11). Goto insert>module.
paste this code:
Sub ChangeNames()
Const FILEPATH = "C:\Users\rsukhr01\Desktop\test" 'amend to location containing files
Dim r As Range, cell As Range
'identify range containing file names - assumes you hve a header in row 1 and then filenames below it
Set r = ActiveSheet.Range("A2:A" & Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row)
'loop thru the files and change their names:
For Each cell In r
Name FILEPATH & "\" & cell.Value As FILEPATH & "\" & cell.Offset(, 1).Value
Next cell
End Sub
Close VBA, goto view>macros and run the "change.name" macro.
This will rename the original file names (column A) to your new file names (column B). Also make sure this excel file is is the same folder as your files that you want to rename.
hope this helps...
also I will find out the source for the VBA macro and update to give that person credit.
