Combining multiple pdf pages

Hi,
I have 22 separate pdf pages. I was wondering if there was a way to combine them sequentially into one document. Do I have to download a utility for editing pdf files. If so, what would be a good one to download.
Thank you

There are many tools. For example, Adobe Acrobat.

Combining multiple pdf pages into a single document

I realize this is probably an inappropriate request -- probably? almost certainly -- for this forum, but perhaps someone can refer me to another source for a solution.
I would like to combine several pages individually scanned to pdf format into a single pdf document. How do I do that? (I have only Adobe Reader. I do not have any applications for creating and editing pdf pages.)
Hope you'll forgive the inappropriate request, and thanks to anyone who can refer me to a more appropriate source.
Sincerely,
Eric Weir

I would like to combine several pages individually scanned to pdf format into a single pdf document. How do I do that?
You already have the application installed -- Preview. Whether the source files are single page or multipage documents, whether they are all on size/orientation or come in multiple dimensions/orientations, simply ...
1) Open each in a separate Preview window,
2) Open the "sidebar" for each window,
3) Drag one or more icon pages from any of the source Preview sidebar windows to your target Preview sidebar window,
4) Arrange the order of the pages in the target sidebar window as desired, and
5) Save resulting document under a new name using the "Save As..." File menu option.
ADDED: Oops! Too slow. Someone else beat me to it...

How can you combine multiple PDF pages into one searchable PDF page?

I have scanned multiple business cards and now have a PDF file with over 500 pages (or cards). I would like to be able and create a page with 8 cards to a page and is still searchable for text. Right now, the text is searchable. Basically have 63 pages and not 500.
Example:
If I wanted to find Joe Smith's card, I could search for "Joe Smith" and it would search all of the text and bring me to the page(s). Right now, it will bring me to that page. Is there a way to create a page where I can have multiple cards and the text is still searchable?
I tried to create a page in Photoshop, made 8 different layers with 8 different cards, but when saved, not only was the file way too large, but no text, or font, was detected and there was nothing to search for.
Is there an option to create a page in Acrobat Professional and put 8 cards to a page?
I have InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop and Acrobat Professional Pro.
Thanks,

That sounds great, but I'm lost.
I followed these steps:
1) Open your PDF (in Adobe Acrobat Pro)
2) Chose print
The print/printer options pop-up will show.
3) In the printer section, do not use your normal printer, a printer named Adobe PDF should be an option. Chose it.
4) Under the "Page handling" section, change the Page Scaling drop-down menu to "Multiple pages per sheet".
It works fine, but it looses all of the font information and the search no longer works. How can you do it and save the font info, so the search tool continues to operate.
Am I missing anything?

Hello Apple community... I am trying to combine multiple pdf's into one, using preview, but when I drag the additional pages they show up as separate documents.

I am trying to combine multiple pdf's into one, using preview, but when I drag the additional pages they show up as separate documents. When I drag the doc in a line would show up in the past, and if I went above th eline all was good. It doesn't have a line, and no matter what I try I am having no success.
Please help!

According to an Apple Support article, unless there are unforeseen issues
in file ownership or permissions, the combining of .PDFs should be simple.

There are a few variable and similar methods, some change with version

I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. Mac users can no longer read the page numbers but pc users can.

I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. As of about 2 weeks ago the mac users can no longer read the page numbers they get a font error message and see only -- where the page information should be. The pc users do not have this same problem. When I replace our regular font (URW Grotesk) with a system font (Verdana) everyone is able to read the page numbers. This is a new issues, I have been creating these documents in the same way for years without a problem. I have been on hold and on and off calls for the last two hours, I keep getting hung up on once I find someone in adobe support to talk to!

Hi KnoopL,
Are the Mac users using Preview to view the pdfs or Adobe Reader?

Save combined PDFs
Open the PDFs you want to combine.
In each open PDF, choose View > Thumbnails to display the pages of the PDF in the sidebar.
Drag the thumbnails you want to add (Command-click to select noncontiguous pages) to the thumbnail sidebar in the other PDF.You can add pages to the end of the document or between pages in a document. Drag thumbnails to reorder them. You can also add a PDF file before or after another PDF document.
Choose File > Export to save a new PDF containing all of the combined pages, or choose File > Save to replace the original version of the destination PDF with the version containing the combined pages.

In Acrobat Professional 8, what is the best way to insert/combine multiple pdf's together in a large

In Acrobat Professional 8, what is the best way to insert/combine multiple pdf's together in a large volume?
We have 300 pdf reports and need to insert a 2 page cover page infront of each report. Not sure if Batch processing is best???
Thanks for any tips.

Probably each cover page is different too. I would probably just bite the bullet and do each individually. I would create the 2 cover pages in WORD or other word processor and print to cover.pdf. Then open a PDF and Pages>Insert Pages or the cover.pdf to the front of the open PDF and save as to the current PDF. Then repeat 299 times. Each time you would make the appropriate change to the DOC file and print a new cover.pdf file (you might want to turn off open in Acrobat for this processing in the printer properties to save time). Probably a good idea to keep a list of the files to check off what has been done (you can generate a list in DOS by Start>cmd, change the directory to your location [cd path], and do "dir >>list.txt". That will give you a list to use.). There may be an easier way, but by the time you get it figured out you might be done this way.

Combining multiple pdfs and then adding info to the blank fields.

i combined multiple pdf's together to make one package. The forms had text field in each of them, when i combined them i tried to add text to the blank spots and the info autofilled from page one on to all of the pages. I do not want this to happen. when i go to the tasks-> Forms-> Edit fields, it brings up each page with the text box and a number next to each one that page. All of the pages have some numbers that are the same and i can not change them so the info does not fill in from info on other pages. How do i stop this?

Do you need the fields to remain interactive or need to extract the field data after you merge the document together?

Adobe Acrobat combining multiple pdf files causes unwanted duplicates

Hello All,
We're having an issue trying to combine multiple pdf documents into a single file. It doesn't happen all of the time, but what happens is the final pdf will have duplicate pages in them. A file that should only have 7 pages will have 14, the last 7 being repeats of the first 7. Has anyone encountered this issue and know how to resolve it? We're still using Acrobat 7 on Windows XP. Thanks for your help!

Thanks, but they're not dynamic forms with specific names, just straight up pdf documents with text and images. They are invoices from an automated process that create the pdf documents. The process itself does not use dynamic forms with specified field names. Not to mention every document created is exactly the same except for the customer info and images. The individual documents are then manually combined together by an office person and that is where we're having the problem. The issue does not happen all the time, just occasionally. Sorry if I didn't specify this in my original post.

Create- combine multiple pdf files has stopped working? Adobe Acrobat Pro on Mac

Hi It's my first time on this forum. I'm a regular user of the create pdf by combining multiple pdfs. It always works no questions asked, but just a few days ago when I'd click on create and select Combine files into a single pdf nothing happens. Usually a pop up would let me identify the files to combine.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Anne,
If all you need to do is combine the PDFs, and Acrobat continues to give you problems, you can have a go at the free program PDF Split and Merge. You will need Java installed on your computer to run it (Java apps run on all systems -- Mac, Windows and Linux, and mobile systems like Android and iOS). Acrobat hangs for me sometimes when trying to combine multiple PDFs, especially if the individual PDFs are of considerable file size. PDF "Sam" works fine for me when Acrobat won't. It also uses less memory and resources than mighty Acrobat, on my RAM-challenged (Windows) machine. As stated above, PDF Sam is a Java program, so it should work also on Mac. There are also system-specific downloads available on the author's web page.
Have a look-see at PDF Split and Merge at pdfsam.org/download (Go to "Other Platforms and Versions" to find the Mac-specific version).
Download Java (if it's not installed!) at java.com (Go to java.com/download/manual.jsp and scroll down for Mac OS X). *Java 7 requires at least Mac OS 10.7.3 to install; check "About This Mac" at Apple menu -> About This Mac... to see your system version.
Good luck

How do I combine multiple PDF using PHP on Linux

Hi,
I would like to know if there is an Adobe product that can combine multiple PDF's into a single document and works on Linux? We are developing an application using PHP on Linux that has to combine selected PDF's and would like to know if there is a tool with api's (or command line interface) to allow that.

Adobe licenses the PDF Library SDK for native developers on Linux platforms (as C code). They do not supply PHP tools.

How do i combine multiple pdf file into a single pdf file?

how do i combine multiple pdf files into a single pdf file?

The thread was started in early March and it's Mid-April, I know this very well. The OP of this thread posted a very common and simple question or maybe he/she would have resolved this. For an Adobe Acrobat user it's not at all difficult to combine multiple PDF files into one. But to combine PDF files full version of Adobe Acrobat is mainly required, otherwise PDF files can't be combined. For example, I'm using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. These simple steps are mainly required to combine PDF files:
Open Adobe Acrobat.
Click on Combine and click on Merge files into a single PDF.
A window will be appearing, click on Add Files and select the PDF files you want to combine.
Arrange the selected files in any order with the help of Move Up and Move Down button.
Now click on Combine File and the selected PDF files will be combined within a few seconds.
A new PDF file will be created. Click on Save As and name this new PDF file. Then, click on Save.
A new PDF file will be created and all the selected PDF files are combined in it. The steps shown above might be different in other versions of Adobe Acrobat. Other than this, some third-party PDF merge software are also available. Most of them are available with a demo version for free evaluation. I've heard much about SysInfoTools PDF Merge software on other forums and directories and it's demo version is freely available. One may check its demo version if Adobe Acrobat (full version) is not available.

If possible, How do I copy multiple PDF pages to a word document?

I know how to take a snapshot of one PDF page at a time and copy to a word document; however, I do not know how to copy multiple PDF pages at once. Is it even possible? I would love to know if anyone has any information pertaining to my question!
Thanks,
Suns2006

If it messed up the formatting, you will not be able to do more with Acrobat. Some third party products supposedly do pretty well, but that conversion may cost you as much as Acrobat.

When combining multiple PDF's, the field properties change

When combining multiple PDF's, the field properties for the Font and/or the "Scroll long text" checkbox change settings. What is causing this to happen?

Thank you for the prompt reply. I do indeed have the same field name across multiple files, but they are all set the same in their individual files.
