Combine OCR pdfs into one file and keep OCR text

I posted a few weeks ago, but found out today that I misunderstood the problem. We got back our files from the vendor digitized as individual pdfs that have already been OCRed. When we try to combine the individual pages into issues (these are newspapers), the OCR text is lost. We're using Acrobat 8 and 9 Professional.
Thanks!

Hi
     I tried this with A8 and A9 but could not replicate the issue as mentioned by you. Here is what I did:
     1. OCR two single page scanned PDFs.
     2. Combine the two single page OCRed PDFs into one PDF.
     3. Check if the text is still there.
     and I found that the text was retained.
     How were the PDFs OCRed in your case? Were these PDFs OCRed using Acrobat or some other tool?

Trying to combine multiple PDF into one file

I have several of my daughters online assignments that I scanned in then converted to a PDF. But, now I need to make them into one document but cant find how to do that. I am using Adobe Reader X.

The PDF Pack online service can also combine PDF files.

How do I combine several pdfs into one document?

I just switched to Yosemite, and now I cannot figure out how to combine several pdfs into one document. I rarely need to do this, so I looked at past tutorials, but nothing seems to work. Help!

I don't understand - I've just tried it and it worked. I had 2 multi-page pdfs, opened both in Preview, followed my earlier post and saved the new pdf. The saved file is multi-page
Odd

Are these files fillable forms?
Could you need to combine more than 100 MB of files?

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.

When combine multiple PDFs into one, some letters are missing and display wrong letter

Hi all. I get a problem with combine multiple PDFs into a single PDF document. There are some PDF documents and they are working fine to open each document separately. But after I use Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard to combine them into one, some letters are missing and some display wrong letter (e.g. "forums" display "fo ums"). Our company has Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard, Adobe Acrobat 7 Professional and Standard. But all of them have some problem. Does anyone have idea for that? Please help me! Thanks very much!

I have a similar situation, but my PDFs look fine in Acrobat Pro 8,Acrobat Reader 8, and Apple preview, but are missing letters in Acrobat Pro 7. I think it stems from the files being combined all having the same font, but each having a unique subset stored in the respective files, but with the same name (and ID?), and when they are combined, the character sets are getting hosed somehow.

When I import a commercial CD itunes will create 2 identical albums and put all of the songs except one into one album and put the other song into the other album by it self. How can I combine them all into one album and why is itunes doing this?

When I import a commerical CD Itunes will create 2 identical albums and put all of the songs except one into one album and put the other song into the second album that it created. Why is itunes doing this and what can I do to combine them into one album?

I found this to be somewhat helpful: Grouping Tracks into Albums
What I did was to put in the same name for Album Artist in every track. That seemed to do the trick (previously all those fields were empty). It seems like a lot of work for a simple thing.
iTunes knows (or should know) that these tracks were imported from one CD. So why is it relying on incomplete data from the gracenote database?

Combine multiple pdfs into one form

I have several multi-page pdfs that I would like to combine into one dynamic form. I can import one at a time separately, then paste in each page, one at a time, but that's very time consuming. How can I take each imported file and add it, as a whole, to the master form?

Then you can do it using a Server product called LiveCycle Assembler. The form will have to be 1st, then you can add as many PDFs as you want.

How can I combine multiple pdfs into one document?

I need to consolidate multiple docs into one. How do I do that?

It's pretty easy. Open multiple PDF documents in Apple Preview that came with your Mac. Choose View/Thumbnails so you can see the page thumbnail icons. Select any number (or all) of the page thumbnail icons of one document and drag them to any point in the thumbnails of another document.
For example you can drag page 6 of one PDF between pages 40 and 41 of another PDF doc. But it sounds like you want to select all pages of one PDF and drag them to the end of another PDF doc.
If you need more powerful document combining you can use PDFpen or Adobe Acrobat Professional, but they cost money.

How to combine multiple columns into one column and delete value the row (NULL) in sql server for my example ?

My Example :
Before:
Columns
name
address
               jon                      DFG
               has                     NULL
               adil                     DER
After:
Column
                               Total
                  name : jon , address : DFG
                  name : has
                  name : adil , address : DER

Why not doing such reports on the client site?
create table #t (name varchar(10),address varchar(20))
insert into #t values ('jon','dfg'),('has',null),('adil','der')
select n,case when right(n,1)=':' then replace(n,'address:','') else n end
from
select concat('name:',name, ' address:',address ) n from #t
) as der

Combining PDFs into one using c# and acobat x

Hi
How can i combine multiple PDFs into one using Acrobat X, but control it all through c#
Thanks

A user will have the application open on their machine. The application scans relevant folders looking for the documents, and when it finds all the ones it needs it needs to open them and compuile them into one PDF. They are Hyperion reports. The human --> Acrobat needs to go, as the trigger is the files being present.
It is a windows form application in C# that will sit in the tray, just doing what it needs to when it needs to.
Not on a server, as one employee needs to check when done and scan for a sense check on the compiled report.
Hope this helps.

Combine files into one folder and send

How do I combine separate PDFs into one folder which I can attach to an email and send as folder? What adobe services do I need?

You cannot email folders, unless you compress the whole folder into a ZIP file. However, the zipped folder structure may not be compatible with other operating systems.
Better just place all PDF docs into one ZIP file and send it like that.
I don't think Adobe has any tools that can help you with that; unless Adobe Send contains something similar.
