Acrobat combine/merge/background/overlay two documents?

Hello
I'm using Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard on a Windows XP Pro PC.
I'm trying to merge two documents. The first is a PDF printout from a third party program. The second is a report created in our standard Word template, then printed as a PDF; this has numbered pages and headings which relate to the first print out. I'd like to overlay the two, so that the printout appears as part of the report. I can only do this page at a time at the moment, but the documents are large. Does anyone know of an automated way of acheiving this?
Regards
Lindsay

Dear Maria Luisa Noscal
My few queries
1. Are these PDF, word Douments stored in SAP DMS? If not ask them to give you the merged files which is stored in their legacy system and then upload.
2. Why there is need to merge all these documents ? Any business process specific requirement that will enhance Day to day Operation?
Because we need to think before going for such mass change whether it is really required.
Even if you achive merging of all files, next the client would ask to delete all original files which are store.
There should be logical reason to implement this.
If client pressurises then as suggested by Pradeep go for standard maket solutions. Because even if by hook or crook we try to achive the merger through ABAP, we cannot gurantee the merger and its validation whether we have its merged properly.
Hope it will help you to take decesions.
With Warm Regards

Applescript Acrobat combine pdfs

Hi,
I've tried and failed to create a script that takes two PDF files I've selected in the finder, open Acrobat Pro and use the Combine feature (File > Combine > Merge Files into a Single PDF...), saving them out with the filename taken from the clipboard.
The Automator combine pdfs application and other off-the-shelf products are no good to me as they rely upon choosing files from a dialog box, and the fonts in the resulting pdf can also become corrupted.
So if I go to the Finder and select a file, copy its name, then select a second file, I want a script to combine these two selected PDFs into one, using Acrobat. The filename becomes the name of the first file I copied.
Can anyone help? Many, many thanks if you can: I have a few hundred of these to do.

I don't use Acrobat. Nevertheless, the following script should do exactly what you are asking for using Preview.app. instead.
set theTitle to (the clipboard) & "*" -- remove the asterisk if you wish
set theApp to POSIX file "/Applications/Preview.app" as alias
tell application "Finder"
    set S to selection
    if S is {} then return
    repeat with thisItem in items of S
        if not (name extension of thisItem is "pdf") then return
    end repeat
    open S using theApp
end tell
tell application "Preview" to activate
tell application "System Events" to tell process "Preview"
    set windowName to name of window 1
    tell menu 1 of menu item "Sidebar" of menu 1 of menu bar item "View" of menu bar 1
        if menu item "Hide Sidebar" exists then click menu item "Hide Sidebar"
        click menu item "Show Sidebar"
    end tell
    keystroke "a" using {command down} -- Select All
    keystroke "p" using {option down, command down} -- Print Selected Pages…
    repeat until sheet 1 of window 1 exists
        delay 0.1
    end repeat
    click menu button "PDF" of sheet 1 of window 1
    click menu item "Save as PDF…" of menu 1 of menu button "PDF" of sheet 1 of window 1
    keystroke theTitle
    keystroke "d" using command down
    keystroke return
    if button "Replace" of sheet 1 of window "Save" exists then
        click button "Replace" of sheet 1 of window "Save"
    end if
    repeat while sheet 1 of window windowName exists
        delay 0.1
    end repeat
    keystroke "w" using {command down}
    set destinationFolder to choose folder with prompt "Where to put the merge PDF ?" default location (path to home folder)
end tell
tell application "Finder" to move file theTitle of desktop to destinationFolder with replacing
Hope it can help.

Sending two documents as a single pdf?

My company is insisting that I send two documents as a single attachment pdf. Any ideas how to do this?

Acrobat pro. Reader CANNOT combine PDFs. You can download a 30 day trial. https://www.acrobat.com/free-trial-download.html?product=acrobat_pro&loc=us&promoid=KHXXV& mboxSession=1377365021632-3625&s_tnt=62134:1:0

Combining PDF files into one document?

I am working on my MS thesis and need to combine two documents into one PDF file for electronic submission. The two files are formatted with software that compiles the reference page and if combined in word will reformat the reference pages into one (I need them to be separate). Once I save the documents as PDF's is there a way to combine them at that time. This would be ideal. Thank you

Hi,
To add page number you can use Adobe Acrobat XI Pro that can be downloaded from www.adobe.com for Trial version.
How to add page numbers in PDF files:
1. Open your PDF file in Acrobat
2. Select "Tools" from right panel
3. Select "Pages" tab
4. Select "Header & Footter" then click "Header & Footer"
5. Click "Insert Page Number"

How can I merge 2 similar Numbers documents?!

I have two numbers documents. They both have the exact same column headers. However, the header rows are different.
I would like to know the most efficient way to merge these two documents.
The row headers are a list of names in each document and the column headers are pieces of information about each person in the list. This is a data managements behemoth!
Anything you have to offer will be greatly appreciated.

Copy/Paste.
I assume you want to append one to the bottom of the other to create one large table, right? Open the one you want as the final document. Ensure the destination table has at least one empty row at the bottom. Open the second document. Copy everything but the column headers. Back at the destination table, click on the cell located in column A of the first blank row. Paste.

Is "Compare two Documents" only in the Mac version?

I see discussions that talk about comparing two documents using "Document>Compare Documents", but I can't find any kind of compare feature anywhere in the menu structure. I'm using Acrobat 9, Standard on Win XP here.
I have Acro Pro v5.0 at home and it's just not there.
I'm curious because I posted to Framers and got several responses directing me to the feature. I'm guessing this is just
a difference between the Mac version and the Windows version?
I'm trying to find something that will simplify the process of marking changes between two PDFs.
Thanks in advance

Any idea why the menu item would not be present?
I've got Adobe 9, Standard, version 9.2.0 installed. Is this perhaps something that could have been disabled at install or in an admin update?

[CS3 JS] Working with two documents of the same name

I work with sets of documents that use standardized names. I'm trying to write a script that compares two documents from different sets. Because the source and the target documents both have the same name, I've encountered some disturbing behavior that reminds me of the app.activeWindow bug that Dave has written about. (
Dave Saunders, "Scripting FAQ as Wiki" #14, 15 Oct 2007 12:19 pm)
To perform the comparison, I have to grab a reference to the same region of text in both documents, as offset from regular landmarks. I was just patting myself on the back for figuring out the "story.characters.itemByRange(begin, end).texts[0]" acrobatics required, when I discovered that my text objects were magically "dissolving" into invalid objects.
After a lot of debugging and attempts to hack around the problem (i.e. storing the text begin/end indices and not grabbing the text object until the last possible moment), I've narrowed it down to the references to the source and target documents. I've watched the reference variable to the source document *change* to instead reference the target document when I start accessing the target document object. Once this happens, any text objects belonging to the source document become invalid, as if the source document had been closed.
Is there any way around this? I've thought about temporarily saving the files to different names, but I haven't tried it yet.
Here's a script that demonstrates the problem (you'll have to find your own same-named documents if you want to run it):
var source = "/Users/deyk/Desktop/test/source";
var target = "/Users/deyk/Desktop/test/target";
function findChapters(in_doc) {
app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
app.findGrepPreferences.appliedCharacterStyle = "chapter-num";
app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "\\d+";
return in_doc.findGrep();
var sdoc = app.open(File(source+"/01.Genesis.indd"));
var s_file_start = sdoc.fullName;
var s_chs = findChapters(sdoc);
var s_story = s_chs[0].parentStory;
var s_txt = s_story.characters.itemByRange(s_chs[0].index,
s_chs[1].index-1).texts[0];
var tdoc = app.open(File(target+"/01.Genesis.indd"));
// At this point, sdoc now references tdoc instead.
// s_txt, s_story, and s_chs become invalid objects.
var t_file_start = tdoc.fullName;
var t_chs = findChapters(tdoc);
var t_story = t_chs[0].parentStory;
var t_txt = t_story.characters.itemByRange(t_chs[0].index,
t_chs[1].index-1).texts[0];
var s_file_end = sdoc.fullName;
if (s_file_end.name != s_file_start.name) {
var result = "What a nasty bug!";
"Finished";

I've tried saving the document to a temporary name, and it works satisfactorily:
function openFileAsTemp(a_file) {
var tmp_folder = Folder.temp.fullName;
var date = new Date();
var temp_file = File(tmp_folder+'/'+date.valueOf()+'_'+a_file.name);
var doc = app.open(a_file);
doc = doc.save(temp_file);
return doc;

While doing F-32 residual payment - Two documents generated AB and RV

Hi all,
While Clearing partial payment with respect to Invoice thorough F-32 ( As residual )- Two documents generated AB and RV in development system.
where as in Quality and Production system there is only one AB document generated.
Is it standard behavior to generate AB and RV?
Customer don't what that RV document to be generated.

Hi,
This is one of the option given by SAP to manage your open items in case of partial payments. In this process when you go for residual payment, your original open item against which partial payment is made gets cleared & system automatically creates a new open item with the balance amount.
e.g you have an open item of Rs 10,000/- since 01.03.2014 & today i.e on 01.04.2014 you are making an payment of Rs 6,000/- against the said item & you opt for residual payment. In this case the original open item i.e Rs 10,000/- gets cleared & a new open item of i.e Rs 4,000/- get created . Note that this new open item created by the system will have the new document date (01.04.2014) and new baseline date, i.e here aging of your receivable/payable does not reflects the true picture.
But this is not the case when you opt for partial clearing method. In partial clearing method , the original open item is not cleared, instead both the items are shown as open items.
If you take the case of above example, after making the partial payment of Rs 6,000/- against Rs 10,000/- you will have two open items. One the original one of Rs 10,000/- since 01.03.2014 and another for Rs 6,000/- on 01.04.2014.In this case the aging of your receivable/payable shows the true picture.
Yes its a business decision ,which method to adopt.
Thanks & regards
Deepak

POSTING_INTERFACE_CLEARING - clear two documents

Hi,
I need to create a new program that should be able to clear two documents by comparing the ASSIGNMENT filed of the payment document (DZ) against the REFERENCE field of the installment invoice (II).
I can do this via batch input in FB05 (choosing open item -> Select Document Number in Radio Button -> Enter Account -> Click Process Open Items -> Enter Document Numbers -> Post).
However, I came across the FM POSTING_INTERFACE_CLEARING and tried to use it. Unfortunately, I was not successful in using this to clear the items that I need to clear.
Do you think I can use the said FM for clearing two open items to produce one clearing doc using the document number?
Can you please provide sample code if you have one?
Thank you very much in advance for your inputs.
Best regards.
Brando

Please be informed informed that the invoice and payment are already present in table BSID. I would just need to clear them in my custom program. Thanks.

How can I use Adobe Acrobat X Standard to print multiple documents on Lexis Nexis File & Serve?

I am unable to print multiple documents on the Lexis Nexis File & Serve legal website that used their Batch Document Processor software. The technicians there told me that Adobe Acrobat X Standard has an incompatibility with their Batch Document Processor software. I never had a problem with Adobe Acrobat 6.0 or Adobe Acrobat 9.0 and the Batch Document Processor program at the Lexis Nexis File & Serve website. I am now running Windows 7 Professional SP1. Before, we were running Windows XP Professional SP3 with the IE 8.0 browser. We now are running the IE 9.0 browser.

The answer is in the question...
Only the Pro version of Acrobat is capable of batch processing files (which
I assume the Lexis Nexis tool uses). Until now you had Acrobat Pro, and now
you have Acrobat Standard, and therefore you can't use it anymore. You need
to upgrade to Acrobat Pro.
