Creating Tabloid PDF from 2 letter sized pdfs

I am using version 7.1.0 pro and am trying to figure out how to create a tabloid sized pdf document from two letter sized pdf documents, basically making printer spreads for output to a copier. Thanks!

Chuck:
Do you actually need a PDF this way, or do you just need to print it out this way?
If you only need to print it this way, you can set up your Print setting to "2 Pages per Sheet" in the "Layout" section of your Print settings.
If you actually need a PDF this way, you would have to follow graffiti's suggestion and place the PDFs in an inDesign document. Or you would need a 3rd Party plug-in for Acrobat such as Pitstop to accomplish this.

  • I just paid almost $10 to create a pdf from a jpg file, but I did it so that I could edit it. Now I find out I needed a different Adobe package that would create the pdf AND let me edit it. What do I do now?

    Hi Marion,
    PDF pack is meant to convert files to pdf format, Here's the feature list : Convert Word to PDF, Convert PDF to Word & Merge PDFs | Adobe PDF Pack
    In order to Create, Convert, edit pdf files, one needs to purchase Acrobat Software, Here's a feature list of Acrobat Pro : Features, PDF documents | Acrobat XI Pro
    However, you can download a free 30 day trial of Acrobat software using the following link : https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html

  • How can I create one pdf from a FrameMaker Book with mixed page sizes.

    Looking for an easier way to create one pdf from a FrameMaker book that has files with different pages sizes; letter and tabloid.
    So far, I have not been able to find a way to set up the Adobe PDF printer or Distiller to read the page size from the source files in the book and then create one pdf with the appropriate page sizes based on the file sizes in the FrameMaker book. I can create a pdf of the book using a multi-step process where I create a pdf for each page size and then combine them into one file. This is a lot of work.
    Is there a way to set the Adobe PDF printer where it reads page size from the source files and then creates one pdf with a mixed page sizes?
    Using FrameMaker 7 and 10 and Acrobat X Pro.
    Thanks for any suggestions

  • Creating a pdf from a scanner

    When I use Adobe 9, I can create a pdf from my scanner.  The document use to come in exactly as scanned, such as a letter sized document.  Now, everything I pull from my scanner is coming in as a legal sized paper.  I do not know how to change that.  Also,  I can not find the option to create a pdf from my scanner in Adobe X. Can anyone help me.  I getting complaints from clients.  Thank you.

  • Forcing odd-sized PDF into letter-sized pages

    I am merging several PDF files into a single document. They were originally scanned from books, so they are all sorts of different sizes. I'd like to somehow crop the pages so they best-fit a consistent, standard letter-sized page (i.e. so each page is 8.5 X 11 in. and the text is as big as possible on that page).
    I realize that I can choose to scale up when I print, but when I try that, it either takes forever (hours) to print or it fails to print entirely.
    Is there an easy way to do this? Thanks.

    Thanks, Steve. I do have InDesign, but don't use it much, so I don't know what I'm doing. It doesn't open the PDFs. Is there some secret? Note that these are scanned page images. They weren't created with any Adobe software.
    Or, since Acrobat can scale-up printing, why can't it scale-up the files for saving? This seems like something people would want to do often within Acrobat.
    Also, do other people have the problem of incredibly long print times when up-scaling? Thanks again.

  • Hyperlinks not converting when creating a pdf from Word 2010 to Adobe Acrobat 11.0.6

    First off, let me say that these are not table of contents hyperlinks.  I have created a document in Word 2010 (not a MAC) with hyperlinks to files residing on our company's intranet.  In Word the hyperlinks work great but when I create the pdf, the links do not work.  I have converted using both PDFMaker from Word and Create a pdf from within Acrobat.  Yes, I have all the boxes checked regarding saving links.  The links appear to work partially.  Meaning that when I hover the cursor over the link, the pointy finger appears but when I click I get a pop-up message telling me the file could not be opened.  Also, when I hover over the hyperlink, the address appears.  So, I think it knows there's a link and it tries to open but can't.  When I create the file within Adobe the link works - once.  When I click on the link I get a pop-up window asking me if I want to save my file before closing.  After my response the file closes and the linked file opens.  However, when I go back into the file and try the hyperlink again, I get the pop-up telling me the file cannot be opened.  HELP!  I am at my wits end.  After spending hours yesterday trying to research (I think I read every thread related to hyperlinks but I am not using a Mac, table of contents or Adobe 7 around which it seems all the prior questions revolve) and futily creating and recreating the pdf (as if doing the same thing repeatedly would somehow magically work) I am about to give up.  This is a document that will be published to our intranet for use by employees which cross-references other documents to which they can refer for additional information.  I would prefer to publish a pdf and not a Word document.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Thanks for your input Bill. I've checked the preferences and "view large images" is turned on. It's not all of the images which are missing, only certain ones do not transfer over to PDF.

  • With the upgrade to Acrobat Pro 9.4.6 I can no longer create a pdf from a document.

    I am using Window XP, Office 2007 Professional.  When the upgrade occurred, I lost the functionallity of creating a pdf from Publisher.  I go through the print, select Adobe PDF and then print.  Sometimes it looks like it is creating a pdf and then on results.  Othertimes it just blinks and returns to Publisher.  Adobe wil not let me un-install the last update.  Any suggestions?

    Thank you for your response.  I got an error message as follows:
    %%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
    %%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: MSPUB_setclippath_7 ]%%
    Stack:

  • Hello.  May I ask:  I am using Acrobat 6.0.2, and having trouble formatting a PDF created from multiple (jpeg) files.  Each page is formatted to A4 size, portrait.  But when I create the PDF, each sheet appears as tiny, in the middle of a huge white page.

    Hello.  May I ask:  I am using Acrobat 6.0.2, and having trouble formatting a PDF created from multiple (jpeg) files.  Each page is formatted to A4 size, portrait.  But when I create the PDF, each sheet appears as tiny, in the middle of a huge white page.  I cannot seem to find any controls to adjust this.  Any advice appreciated.

    Thanks CtDave, for the further info.  Unfortunately, those suggestions are not working, which is strange.
    ....Until last week, I used to make multi-page PDFs straight from Photoshop: File > Automate > Make PDF.  One simply choses the files, orders them, and creates a PDF.  (Resolution doesn't matter; 300 DPI is no problem.)  However, my new Photoshop CS5 does not have the option in Automate.
    What I've done, seeing as Acrobat is letting me down, is use Bridge (new to me) to create the PDF.  It worked without a problem, but seems like more work than the old PS method.  I will download a newer version of Acrobat to see if that makes any difference.
    .....Also, thanks Test Screen Name:  I agree with you that jpeg is irrelevant, and that one can make a PDF from Photoshop (Print > Save As - pdf).  But that only works for SINGLE PAGE pdf, not multiple pages as far as I can tell.
    Kind regards,

  • Log files when creating a pdf from PDFMaker Office COM addin

    Hello,
    I just bought Acrobat Standard to create pdfs on Word 2013.
    I'm making a catalog using this two softwares, Word 2013 (latest version with all updates) and Acrobat XI (latest version, 11.0.06). Unfortunately things are not working as I wish, and on some documents almost at the end of the transformation process, it can't save the pdf file or it gives a major word error, exiting word.
    When the transformation process is running/ending, are there any logs created to see what happens in case of errors?? If yes, where can I look up for them??

    Sorry, but when the pdf is created or not (like when happens on this particulary case), I don't see any logs on the same folder. 
    Let me try to explain my problem in depth.  I have a docx, a big file with 200 pages. It's created with Word 2013 but using the 2010 docx format for compatibility reasons. I beggun using the Word x64 but now I'm using the x86 and the problem happens on both and in the same ways. 
    First. If I try to convert the whole document, most of the times (I'd say 70%) the pdf doesn't get created or the rest of the times (30%) It causes a crash to Word with a dll error. Normally it halts (whether it doesn't create the pdf of halts word) at a certain page, after repaginanting all pages and when it says that is creating page nº X.
    I already pinpoint, more or less, where the error is. The error is located on the first pages, more exactly on the index pages. It's not a index created by the Word, it is a set of pages that I manually built with a grid of pictures with each one having a hyperlink to a designated bookmark to a desire page on the document. If I "pdfmaker" the rest of the whole document (without the index pages) I can get the pdf created.
    So, the index is where the problem resides. On this thread, http://forums.adobe.com/message/5816803#5816803 , you will see that I had a another problem due to the method used on Word 2003 about hyperlink of images that no longer works (when exporting to pdf) on the latests words versions, at least on the Word 2013. The pdf file was created with no problem, but on the pdf the hyperlinks were not created due to something that M$ has resolved to change between Word 2003 and Word 2007. I found a way to fix that (listed on that thread link). But as I like to invent, on the Field box, on the field options, for this time, I decided to choose the option "Data not stored with the document". That is what is breaking the pdf conversion. Too bad. Now I have to clear the index all the way and start again from the beggining but without that option. I already remake 3 pages and after the conversion the pdf is created. I have to finish the index redone once again and then create the full pdf document to see if any of those errors/halts happen again.
    I just wish to see a adobe log to see what type of error this bug produces so it would be possible to adobe crush the bug
    P.S. - Sorry if I was too confusiong for anyone to understand what I'm trying to say here

  • Create a PDF from a Web Page

    I was on Acrobat pro 6.  Now I am trying out Acrobat X pro ("v10").
    1.  I create a pdf file from a web page.  When I click on a link in the new pdf file, it automatically opens that link in a web browser.  Previously, in v 6.x, it defaults to "Append to the Document".  How can I set Acrobat X Pro to default to "Append to Document" ?
    2.  I find the pdf file created from a web page has no page numbers.  Again, in v6.x, there was page numbers in those files.  How can I get page numbers included in the header/footer?  Is the header/footer configurable?
    3.  In v6.x, when I want to convert a web page (into pdf) that is behind a password -- because it includes links, whereas printing to pdf does not -- I would first get the login page (in pdf).  Then I can type in my password in the pdf file and click on go (right click and select Append) and I would get the next page in pdf.  Now, v10 no longer does that.  I keep getting different errors depending on the web site.  e.g. I was testing on this web site, and get "SyntaxError: invalid XML tag syntax".  Am I missing something or is there a "new" way to get the same result in v10?
    TIA

    Hi paulp14382584,
    It seems that you have removed the Create PDF from webpage tool from the toolbar by mistake. Please don't worry I will help you to get this issue fixed.
    1) Open the Acrobat on your computer.
    2) Right click on the toolbar & select Edit Current Tool Set form the list.
    3) Edit tool set window will pop up on your screen.
    4) Please Click on the 'Create'  option from the list on the left hand side & then select ' PDF from Web-page' from the drop down list.
    5) Then click on the small button ( + & arrow sign towards up ) to add it to the tool bar.
    6) Hit Save to confirm the changes.
    This will add the Create PDF from web-page tool on the tool bar.
    Let me know if you experience any issue.

    Aadesh

  • When creating a PDF from the scanner, it only scans one side despite the settings.

    When creating a PDF from the scanner, it only scans one side. I am using a fi-7160 that supports scanning both sides at once. The Scanner software is configured to scan both sides, and so are the presets in Adobe Acrobat Pro. I've only gotten the setting to work with the Custom Scan setting. Has anyone else had this problem, and what is the solution?
    Additionally, the software bundled with the scanner with automatically omit the back sides of a page if it is blank. I am scanning large files with occasional double sided pages. Is there a way to avoid having to manually delete blank pages when creating a new PDF from the scanner? It takes twice as long because I'm using the OCR stabilization.

    Hi anne,
    Could you please let me know what Acrobat and OS version are you using.
    Does this happen in case of any particular PDF or all PDF files?
    Try repairing Acrobat and then again check.
    Hope to get your response.
