Error when Combining Multiple File Types

I can't combine multiple file types into one pdf, e.g. .docx and .xlsx files. The combine feature only seems to be working to combine .pdf and .jpg file types. An error message stating the below appears. Does anyone have a solution?
Thank you.

no i can't seem to do that either. the only way I have found to get around it. It's long winded... i export the jpgs from Indesign CS4, then take the jpgs into photoshop CS4 and baiscally resave over the top the of the original jpg without changing any settings, this will then let me combine them in Acrobat Pro 9. for now i will be doing it that way but if anyone knows of another way that would be great.

Acrobat 7 freezes when combining multiple files

I'm running Acrobat 7 Standard, and whenever I attempt to combine multiple PDF files acrobat will freeze up completely. It can scan, and add pages to an open document with no trouble. It will freeze whether I choose Create PDF From Multiple Files within acrobat, or if I select multiple files in windows explorer, then right click and choose Combine in Acrobat...
I have cleared temporary files, repaired the program, and completely reinstalled the program. Even after a fresh reinstallation, it will lock up when trying to combine multiple files. It does everything else just fine.
I am running a HPCompaq dc5100 MT, with Windows XP Pro. I have 2GB ram, and a P4 3.2Ghz processor. I also have a database program called Laserfiche that I run, though this problem occurs whether I have Laserfiche open or not. I've already tried killing all acceptable processes (minus adobe's of course) and recreated the error. I've also tried this with the most recent update 7.1.0 and without: both yeild the same result. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Dear all,
I think I have the same problem... or not ?!
=> When I try to open multiple files at the same time it opens only the 2 or 3 first ones then it freezes on the Spinning Beach Ball of Death !
=> Then it never completely finishes loading and freezes up Indesign.
=> I am unable to cancel the dialog box and have to use cmd+alt+esc to close the program
=> then, the files open directly on indesign when I open the program again (jus as if the files had been loaded and ready to go)
I am working on MAC OS X (10.7.3)
Anybody could help please ?? (sorry for my english... I'm a French native speaker)

Hiding filenames when combining multiple files into a single .pdf

I'm fairly new to this Acrobat X. I'm trying to assemble my portfolio to distribute to employers but I cannot seem to get rid/hide the filenames in the final pdf file. I was using the option to 'combine multiple files into a single pdf' because I was compiling images and documents to a single readable pdf file. I got all that done but once I open it, I'd see that each page would still contain the original file names rather than page numbers - which I prefer not to have employers see for the sake of tidiness (and I refuse to use the Adobe portfolio because it's not really efficient on space or design. I prefer a simple page-by-page pdf). So I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to hide my file names, change them into page numbers or getting rid of them all together so the 'Table of Contents' in the pdf preview mode would not show anything, I would really much appreciate it.
-Ss

Well, when the .pdf is in the final, deliverable form; I open it in Mac preview mode and the sidebar is always extended showing a 'table of contents' rather than having each document in the pdf file have a number designating a page name, it shows each individual filename the pdf is composed of. Not too sure about bookmark, though. Thanks for the reply!
If you want, I can send the file to you.

Attaching photos to Apple Mail - error when attaching multiple files

Hello,
My iPhoto just recently started giving me an error whenever I try to attach multiple files to Apple Mail. The error says:
"Mail got an error: Can't get paragraph 8 of
content of outgoing message id 321072192.
Invalid index."
The only option allowed is to cancel. When I look at my Apple Mail it has created a message with the first selected photo attached, but none of the other photos are there. Any ideas of how to correct this? Is this an email client issue?
Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
This is a problem between iPhoto 4 and 10.5.
The workaround is to use the Photo Browser on the new Message Window in Mail, just drag the pic over from there:

Avoid automatic (?) rotation when combining multiple files into 1 pdf

As I do often have to mark up (stamp) and print large number of single A3 size pdfs (converted dwg files) I am combining them (explorer) into 1 new pdf. Thus enabling just 1 print job instead of 50-100 !
So far no problem - combining works fine & all drawings are even landscape.
However when applying custom stamp on each sheet (first time all the way in acrobat - all next sheets with copy - paste because:
much faster
often resizing required
sometimes even rotating required.
Seems originally not "landscape" orientated files were (at least in the view) re-orientated causing the applied stamp to be 90 - 180 or -90 degrees offset
When I manually remove the stamp on this page and insert a new one via Acobe Acrobat (not copy paste) the orientation is ok. Rather amazing.
Got some more related questions but think 1 step at the time is more convenient.
As often 50-100 dwg's are involved the copy-paste method (after resizing once) turns out most efficient till now.
How can I control / avoid the automatic rotation or anticipate on the (obviously) rotating stamps ?
I will have to move the stamps anyway because I can hardly ever put a stamp at the same position on a drawing.
[It turns out to be almost impossible to get draughtsman to leave an empty space on each drawing ...]
Once again thanks in advance for any suggestion !

Some additional info:
main issue: how to avoid files to be rotated during combining? The rotating is not the real issue - however when applying the stamp using Ctrl-C => Ctrl-V the apllied stamp seems to track the original position of the file .... Amazing however: when adding a stamp with Adobe acrobat the "common" way the orientation of the stamp is OK !!
Also: files to be combined do not always have same original size (A3 - A1 - A0 sometimes also A4 or A2 !!) so I do quite often have to re-size my stamp. Do realize I can probably solve this by printing the "binder"document to a pdf first - with setting A3 paper size. I'll try it first !
Would be nice to be able to insert a stamp on each sheet of the binder-document with 1 action (Macro ?) and - importatnt - have the stamp located at same position on each page. Would still require a check as draughtsman don't always leave free space available at same location (if any at all )

Combining Multiple Files within Adobe 8 Professional to create one PDF

The software does not allow me to combine multiple file types to create one PDF. The error I get is Missing PDFMaker files. Do you want to run the installer in repair mode. It appears to go through the motion, but the end result is the same error message. I have noticed a number of people are also having this issue on the internet and on the Adobe forums. Did anyone find a fix for this? I have searched for days and have not found a fix for this.
Thanks,
Millie

If I go to file print the word document to PDF, it works fine. I also noticed when tried to do a right click on the files to convert to PDF, I get the Missing PDFMaker file message.
Windows XP SP2
Office 2007 SP1
Adobe Professional 8.0
Thanks,

I purchased the Adobe PDF Pack but it won't allow me to convert any files to pdf or combine multiple files to into 1 pdf form. It keeps saying "Error occurred while trying to access the file". WHY

I purchased the Adobe PDF Pack for $7.50/month (or $89.99/yr) but it won't allow me to convert any files to pdf or combine multiple files into 1 pdf form. It keeps saying "An error occurred while trying to access the service". WHY is this happening & How can I fix it?

Hi hpmg,
It seems you are trying to access the service via Adobe Reader. Make sure you are signed in with your Adobe ID. Is Reader updated to the latest patch v 11.0.09?
It might be possible that a firewall or antivirus might be breaking the connectivity from Reader to the server.
Try accessing the service from the browser: https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf and check if that works for you.

File conversion error when combining files

Hello,
I am using Adobe Create to combine several files (both word and pdf) into a single pdf document. I have done this several times in the past with no problems. However today it won't allow me to combine any documents which are already in pdf format. The system generates an error for each of these documents as: "Conversion Failed". I am clearly not trying to convert them, but rather to combine them... Any ideas?

Hi gina_hall_7848,
If you're combining both Word and PDF files into PDF, there is some conversion happening (with the Word docs, as they're converted into the combined PDF file). If you're getting the error when combining only PDF files--that's another story. It could be that one or more of the files that you're combining isn't in a supported format, or that Adobe PDF Pack is timing out before it can complete the conversion.
Does the error occur regardless of what files you try to combine?
Best,
Sara

How to combine multiple files in CS6

I am trying to combine multiple files-- book chapters-- into a single editable document in CS6. Tutorials apprea outdated

following on from Sandee Cohen's post no.18, the location of the script has moved to:
http://www.simonwiscombe.com/indesign-merging-all-files/
and it is worth noting that the script initially merged files that were all 1pp long each.
Simon did make a modification to it later on in the article so that the script would merge files of all lengths, but when I ran the script, it produced an error to do with line 18. The line:
var sourceFolder = Folder.selectDialog(“Select a folder with source InDesign files.”);
needs to be replaced with
var sourceFolder = Folder.selectDialog('Select a folder with source InDesign files.');
(double quotes were swapped out for single quotes)
I have only tested the script with varying page lengths with minimal objects on the pages to determine if the files merged. So far so good. The earlier version that merged 1pp files only would fail if fonts/links were missing as any dialog box upon opening seems to interfere with the script. I feel that the newer script will do the same thing.
I know this is an older thread but given I just had the same experience, I thought the revised script would help a few people.

Unidentified error when combining word documents on Acrobat 8 standard

One of our users is currently running Office 2007 and Acrobat 8 Standard. Whenever she tries to combine multiple word files into one PDF, each file in the list will say "Error (file skipped)". The Status will say "PDF conversion process failed, please correct the error and retry." Afterwards I get an error of "No PDF file was created because Acrobat encountered an unidentified error." Printing to the PDF printer from Word works just fine, however this problem only seems to occur when combining word files. I have logged onto the PC as a network administrator and everything works correctly. Any Ideas?
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

It may be as simple as updating Acrobat. I think you needed AA8.1.3 to work with OFFICE 2007. Try to use the create PDF selection under the Acrobat menu in WORD (this is PDF Maker) and see if you can create a PDF. If there is no Acrobat menu, then PDF Maker is not active in WORD and is the basic problem you are having. PDF Maker has to be working for the Acrobat function you are using to be useful.

Solution for undefined Sym when compiling multiple files

Hi, I'd like to suggest a solution for the common 'undefined sym' problem.
Combining all the source files into one file solves the problem quite effectively.
I'm not sure if this is due to gcc, or some name mangling scheme that's throwing
the avm2 off but in any case, when I compile multiple c++ files 'separately', ie
g++ (or gcc) A.c B.c C.c -O3 -DOSX -DRT_AS3 -swc -o library.swc
results in
1) undefined _main if main() is not in C.c (but in another file which is not last in the list),
and
2) calling ANY function in A.c or B.c from C.c results in an "undefined sym" runtime error.
When combining the files into one unit however, and then compiling that unit works fine:
on linux/darwin:
cat A.c B.c C.c > unit.c
g++ (or gcc) unit.c -O3 -DOSX -DRT_AS3 -swc -o library.swc
hope this helps someone.

Perhaps I didn't explain my question well enough. We already are using a dependency management system (based on jam - blows the doors off of make). However, some of our libraries that we build consist of many ( 100+ ) individual .cpp files, and there are many of these libraries in a dependency hierarchy. Invoking the compiler once per file seems to be a source of considerable overhead. I want to invoke the compiler only twice per library, no matter how many individual .o files need to be rebuilt - once to rebuild the out of date subset of .c files (one "-c" style invocation, no link step, generate object files only), and once to link the rebuilt .o files and the unchanged .o files into the target shared object.
However, the compiler will not accept multiple "-o" flags, forcing us to invoke it once per file if we want to specify an output name. I want an option (or a workaround) that will allow us to specify multiple source files, and the output name for each in one compiler invocation. One approach could be a flag that could be used repeatedly to specify source file name / object file name pairs on the command line. Another would be a flag that set a derivation rule by which the output object file name would be generated from the input source file name.
Repeatedly invoking the entire toolchain to compile one file of many, when the include dependency graphs, symbol tables, template instantations, etc. of each of those files are certain to overlap to a great degree, seems to me like a huge waste. Why must we reparse std::basic_string for each source file if we know the build environment is the same, just because we want to specify the output filename?

Acrobat Pro 9.3 Crashes when opening multiple files

Acrobat Pro 9.3 Crashes when opening multiple files. I have not seen any solutions in forums that solves this problem. I have just done the most recent update and it still crashes.

Acrobat Pro 9.4.2 (CS5) is doing the same thing on my Windows XP SP3 with 3.5 GB of ram and 206 GB of my brand new 300 GB hard drive free.
It starting doing this at the end of last year before my hard drive died. Then after rebuilding the entire system on this new drive it worked fine, until I downloaded all the updates and now it is broken again. Anytime I open more than one PDF, Acrobat crashes. I send the error report every time.

BPEL Process with multiple file types using one FTP adapter is not working

i created a bpel process which will fetch the files from remote location using FTP adapter.
Now the process works for only one format or file type like *.xls.
How can i use more than one file format in one FTP adapter.
OR
is there any other way to do it.
file type assignation is 5th step in FTP adapter configuration.
i have tried *.xls,*.csv and *.xls;*.csv and *.xls:*.csv by seperating with comman, colon, space... still not working.
i read the documentation *.* will not work.. for one file format it's working fine.
looking forward for reply as soon as possible.

Are you positive that it is not working? I'm not sure how you can use one FTP adapter for multiple file types unless the underlying data is exactly the same format or you are processing it as opaque data. Sometimes when a FTP adapter chokes on a file with a bad structure it doesn't create a BPEL instance, it simply moves the bad file to a separate folder.
So I assume you are using opaque as the data type instead of using an XSD element?
That said, I don't think you can put two separate file types in the filter. Is it possible for you to do something like: CommonFileName*.* or do you have similar files with other extensions?
I know the above probably isn't of much help, but I had so many problems with the FTP adapter and its lack of features that I am writing my own. Unfortunately that is a large undertaking and there isn't any good documentation of JCA resource adapter / BPEL PM integration.
