Copy and interleave page

I have clients who I do variable data printing for. They give me two PDFs. One PDF page which is a common front and a PDF with the merged data which is just the back pages for each record. I need it insert the common front into the merged file and have it duplicate numerous times in between the merged pages so I get pages that go front back front back front back so the file can be duplexed through a digital printer.
Currently I have the merged file as record 1, record 2, record 3 etc and have to drag the common front into the merged PDF then drag/copy it after each record so it goes common front, record 1, common front, record 2, common front, record 3 etc etc.
I've not been able to find a way Acrobat can simply duplicate a page then insert it x times into odd or even pages.
Is this even possible?
Thanks
Dan

There may be a way to script this, but if the page you want to copy is placed in a separate file, you can drag it into the other document multiple times when the page thumbnails panel is open in both files.

    Muse supports drag and drop , so you can open both pages one from where you will transfer the contents and the other where the contents will be transferred and then you can drag the contents.

  • How to copy and edit pages once they have been scanned to my desktop

    I have a many page report I want to copy and send as one or more PDF files. I scan the page, remove it to my desktop and either slide it onto a blank pages or I Photo, where I make the print darker, etc. and export to my desktop..as file, jpeg document....tried them all.
      Once on the desktop, it won't allow me to add or subtract any information...I can't even select all and copy it.  I can't remember how I use to do this so I would come up with a copy that I could edit and also add several other pages to the bottom of the first page, to send as a pdf, rather than have to send each page separately.'
    Is there a way to do this?

    If you are at the point where you have several .jpg images that you want to turn into a single PDF document,
    Open each .jpg image in Preview and Save As a PDF file.
    Do that for all of them.
    In Preview click on the sidebar and one image will be there.
    From Finder, where reside your recently converted .jpgs to single PDFs drag one to be underneath the existing one and so forth untill all single PDFs are showing in the sidebar.
    Get the focus back on Preview by clicking on it, and then Save As and that will produce one multi-page PDF document.
    Note, The last image you converted will be the first image in the new PDF, so you might like to close Preview and then reopen it with the first image, just to make sure you get them in the desired order.

  • How do you append, or copy and paste, pages

    Hi, if I'm in a file and want to extract a few pages but not the whole file to another file, is there a quick way to do it? I know you can extract the pages to a separate file, save the file and then insert into or combine with another file but this can be time consuming.
    So is there an easy way to do it?
    Many thanks.

    Thanks again. Yes, you are right though between files it only copies and doesn't move. I'm surprised that there isn't a copy and paste function that works in this way or an append like there is with emails, as dragging and dropping can sometimes be cumbersome.
    But anyway it works so I'll have to live with the way it is.
    Cheers!

  • Copy and paste page group?

    Hello,
    Is there a way to copy a page group and paste into a new group instead of creating one from scratch?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    WebDAV ia an extension to the HTTP Protocol - you can use it to manage content on Web Servers. It's a very interesting topic - you can get more information here :
    http://www.webdav.org
    You can access Portal via WebDAV with a URL of this format:
    http://<hostname>:<port>/<dav_location>
    E.g.: the default Portal DAV URL is:
    http://<hostname>:<port>/dav_portal/portal
    You connect to a portal in WebDAV clients using the same user name and password that you use to log in to the portal in the browser interface.
    To set up WebDAV and use it :
    If you are using Windows :
    1. Right-Click on "My Computer" & select "Map Network Drive...."
    2. Click on the "Web Folder ot FTP Site".
    3. Enter the WebDAV URL for your Portal ( in the format that I have mentioned ).
    4. Enter a name for your Folder.
    That's it ! You can then see the Page-Group and the pages as folders. You can browse, copy or delete content as you would in your C: or D: Drive.
    Regards,
    Sandeep.

  • I am not able to copy and past page links into emails. how can I rectify this problem?

    I have version 11.0.
    I have tried to send page links via email groups that I belong to. It is now very difficult to get that link copied or pasted into a new document. This also includes plain text etc.

    Hi David.J.K.,
    I'd try starting Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If you don't have the issue while all of your add-ons, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them back in one by one until you find the culprit. You should look at the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting-extensions-themes Extensions and Themes troubleshooting guide ] and the [[Troubleshooting plugins]] article as well.
    You should also read through [[Clipboard not working]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Clipboard_not_working article.
    Finally, your issue may be because you've been hit with some [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Is%20my%20Firefox%20problem%20a%20result%20of%20malware?s=malware&r=0&e=sph&as=s#w_how-do-i-get-rid-of-malware Malware].

  • Help! The new Pages. I can't copy an entire page or rearrange the pages. In the new formatt also when I insert a new page when using a template it doesn't give me the formatting and guides.  Can anyone help.

    I can't copy an entire page or rearrange the pages. I use this feature a lot, particularly at this time of year. Can't seen to rmove the header and footer markers either.
    Can anyone help or do I need to revert back to pages 09?
    If I do re-install 09 will I be able to open the files that where converted to the new version?
    I don't like this new one. Many of the graphics features have been removed.  Not impressed at all. Very frustrated.
    The business card templates and others behave strangly.  If I insert a page it's blank only. I don't get the guides.  I was in the middle of a design project and had to start again from scratch as it threw everything out of alignment  and I can't copy an entire page. When I use select all, group then copy when I pasted it on the new page it overlayed all the cards in the top two segments.  Frustrating !  I ended up  saving my first page under a different name that was the only way to copy the page then I had to work between three documents instead of one.
    I went in today to last years Christmas tag file and the same issues I can't copy a page. I can't rearrange the pages.
    Simple features like colour choice and transperency for shapes are gone. I want to use my colour choices not someone else.
    Sorry, I am ranting.
    For now all I need is to be able to copy and switch pages around in one document.
    Please Help! I am about to start pulling my hair out in frustration.

        Yes, I am using 09 with out issues.  Just have to remember to use "open with 09" or open pages 09 first then my document.
      I create some amazing cards and posters with 09 that when on a PC I would have to use both Word and Publisher to create.  Flipping back and forth. 
      Apple if you're  listening please, give us back our layout options and even add a few more design options like beveled and 3D text.

  • How do I "Print Booklet" with just odd pages and even pages for duplexing . . options disabled

    I have InDesign CS5.5 on a Windows 7 64-bit machine hooked to a Xerox 7750 printer.  I have created a 8.5x11 portrait document and trying to create a booklet on 12x18 sheets.
    I need to print duplex manually and so I need to print just the odd spreads and then the even spreads.
    I have printed to Adobe PDF and printed from my created PDF file and have it working, but I want to know why InDesign won't let me do it.  When I click "File > Print Booklet > Print Settings" then it shows the Print Dialog box with the Pages section, which includes the Sequence that normally would allow me to do Odd Pages or Even Pages, but it is disabled.  Why?  I can define Print Presets and I can choose Odd Pages, but when I choose that in the Preset box it does not show anything, everything is still disabled.
    Anybody have any idea of why it is disabled?  Is it my printer driver?

    I too was very frustrated after upgrading to indesign cs5.5 and the latest LION OS on my new MAC.  I missed the odd/even page selection in the print dialog box within Indesign.  I tried about everything and found little of value in various forums.  But I did find a workable solution that makes since in terms of Apple's OS.
    My objective is to "impose" my document and also end up with a file that I can just print again and again without "ripping" in the InDesign Print Booklet Dialog.
    Here is the quick version of what to do.  I am not including every little step with pictures. =)  (I can if there is interest.)
    1. create your document
    2. Print Booklet
    3. At the first dialog box, just ignore the printer in print preset (you will come back to this) and go to the 2-up perfect bound option and select 16 page signatures.  This will impose 2-up on 4 physical pieces of paper printed both sides.  So 16 of your document pages printed duplex on 4 physical sheets of paper.  It would be nice to then just select the printer and scaling, etc. and the option to print even pages, flip over and then print odd pages but that ain't an option.  If you have different needs, do the math and input the correct numbers before proceeding
    4. Click on Print Settings  to pull up a second dialog box.
    5. Select for Printer PostScript File (not your printer)  Also select for PPD your printer or Adobe PDF 9 if you have that installed.  Don't obsess on this just pick your Printer for the PPD.
    6. Select 1 copy and All Pages while in the General Tab
    7. Select the Setup Tab Here is where you put in the actual physical paper size that you are going to print your document on. Don't scale to fit.  You must do this.  If you feel the need, check out all the tabs and options but for now, you are just trying to get an output file.  You probably do want to select CENTER for page position in this same setup tab.
    8. Hit OK whcih will return you to the original dialog.  Check when you return to be sure that at the top Printer is populated with PostScript File.  Click on Print and give the thing a name and a location to save at the resulting dialog.
    Breathe as you are almost home.  You have sucessfully created a file that can be called up again and again without opening InDesign. (albeit, a postscript file but not a problem)
    Now,
    1. Double click on this new file (it will have a .ps extention) or just open it in your PREVIEW (apple supplied utility)   Preview is where you accomplish the even and odd page objective.
    2. Preview will show you a short progress dialog while it rips this postscript file into a PDF.
    3. Click on PRINT
    4. Select your printer,page range, select the Paper Size (again not document size  but  the size sheet that you are printing the 2-up , imposed (booklet) document on. If not in the selection dialog, then use the custom option to create it (custom paper size) and give it a name.
    5. Click on SCALE and insert 100% in place of the weird number that it will insert for you.  You will then see your document correctly displayed in the sidebar preview window.
    6.  OK, now what you have been waiting for. Click on the box that says Preview (the active window) and select Paper Handling from the drop-down and select from Pages to Print the coveted odd or even page selection.  You can also do other things that should have been back at the InDesign print dialog but are now gone.  Explore. Enjoy.
    7.  You will have to work out your own work flow about reverse or no reverse order and how to flip, etc. But you will be working with something predictable at this point.
    8.  Since this has been ripped into a PDF , you might as well Click on the PDF button and click on save as a PDF at this point to save that postscript to PDF rip.   Also print using PREVIEW for the newly created PDF file next time as you will not have to learn a bunch of new dialogs and be frustrated all over again.
    I am now back in business printing the book blocks for my handbound journals.

  • How do I copy and paste from one page or file to another page or file - on the same screen?

    How do I copy and paste from one page or file to another - on the same screen?

      Open both of your images in the Editor. Click on the image you want to copy and press Ctrtl+A (select all) followed by Ctrl+C (copy) then click the tab for your other image and press Ctrl+V (paste)
    Alternatively click on your background image then simply drag the second image from the photo/project bin and drop it into the main editor workspace on top of the background image. Use the move tool to position and the corner handles of the bounding box to scale.

  • I am copying and pasting into a new, Pages document (from the word processing menu), and I paste in text that is longer than one page, it doesn't continue onto the next page.  I can't see the end. How do I get it to show everything I paste in?

    I want to copy an extensive amount of text from a web page into a Pages word processing document, but it seems to chop it up into text boxes, some of which aren't long enough to show all of the lines of text.  I can't get hold of a bottom edge of the boxes to drag them to make them longer.  I tried several times starting over with a new, blank page (and I made sure to choose from the Word Processing part of the dropdown menu, since I read about a similar problem that said not to use the layout menu.  It keeps doing the same thing.  What do I have to do to get long text pasted to multiple pages, instead of it trying to be all on one page?
      In the long run, what I want is to create this as an ePub book.  Is there a better way to go about this?

    Hi Ellen,
    Copying from web pages can include some weird formatting. Instead of Paste, use Paste and Match Style (Edit Menu).

  • How can I use the "Copy and paste" tool in order get stamps in the same position in different pages (Acrobat XI for PC)?

    With Acrobat 6.0 I was able to copy a stamp in the same position (I mean "exactly" the same one) of different pages just by using the "copy/past" tool.
    Now I am using Acrobat XI and it seems like it is not possible anymore: I am copying a stamp and I am trying to past it in anoter page, but it appears in the center of the page (or wherever it wants to...).
    Does anyone have a solution?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you very much. I'll be waiting for you message.

  • Why can I no longer copy and paste a page in the thumbnails view?

    We used to be able to copy and paste, even edit the order of the pages in thumbnail view. Why has ALL of this functionality been removed?! Or is there some special way to do it now that isn't as intuitive?

    Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
    Pages 5 has had 90+ features removed and a load of bugs added.
    Any sensible user will just say "Pass!"
