Error when combining pdf docs to one doc

For the past two days I have tried to combine less than 12 pdf files into one PDF file (which I've done successfully just last week). Now I'm getting the following message:
"Your PDF conversion request failed. There was an unexpected problem while combining your files to a single PDF file.Please try again later."
I have tried fewer and fewer docs but am getting the same message.
Does anyone know if there's a problem with the website? Or how to fix the issue?
HELP!! Thanks

No, actually , it's a subscription to an online service and it can be accessed from ANY terminal that has an Internet connection, with or without Reader (https://www.acrobat.com/misc/en/system-requirements.html). I could use it at the Library, Kinko's printing, or at home, if I was signed up for it.
I have Acrobat Pro though, so I don't need it. Nevertheless, it's a service, NOT Reader software, and they have a forum to deal specifically with it, staffed by people who know how to use it. I don't.

Error when combining PDFs in Acrobat 4.0

My workstation is a bit of an older computer and it only has Acrobat 4.0 so I'm hoping people will remember enough about it to help me. I've been making several PDFs out of a large group of old Word Perfect documents and I need to combine them into a single PDF. It has been going well for the first 8 parts, but the 9th and 10th are giving me an error message. It says that "These documents contain subset fonts that have the same name and cannot be merged."
I'm hoping someone here will know what that means and will be able to advise me on how to solve this problem. Thanks.

I'll give that a try, thanks. It's a fairly old set of files I'm working on so it would be great if I can make this work for a single integrated PDF.
If you do have AA4.0, I would appreciate it if you would check that as well. The files are going to come out to around a 250 page document when I get them all assembled and I'm not sure exactly which fonts are causing the trouble yet.

Error when combining pdf's not able to save

I'm getting an error that "the document could not be save. There was a problem reading this document (21)", then "Insufficient data for image". It has never happened until the other day. I combine hundreds of PDF's a day at work and it just started doing it to two separate computers.

Most likely, one individual PDF has this problem.

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

Timeout error when converting PDF to Word

Is there a Maximum file size limit when combining pdf files

I am trying to combine files 8 PDF files created with i Explore using Acrobat XI Standard, the process is completed but when opening the file not all 8 individual files have been combined only the first two have been combined, the process shows all eight being read and combined.
I can open and view each of the original 8 individual files and read the content without any issue, the largest of the eight files is 15,559kb and the smallest is 9,435kb
if anyone can assist that would be most appreciated

Hi Tayls450,
This should not have happened as there is no maximum file size limit when combining PDFs.
Please let me know if there are some password protected PDFs also?
Also, I would suggest you to choose 'Repair Acrobat Installation' option from the Help menu.

Anubha

When combining PDF's, the author is picked up from the first PDF opened. How can I make it use a new author when combining several documents?

Sorting files when combining pdfs?

Ok, I'm not quite sure how adobe sorts files when combining pdfs, but it seems to be somehow different from MS XP. Anyway, what I want to do is combine a bunch of pdfs together which are labelled A 1, A 2, A 3... However, I'm finding that when sorting them by name in adobe to combine them in the right order that the 1's, 2's, and 3's get grouped together, where they are then not sorted numerically. For instance A 2 gets sorted with A 20 and A 200. Even when I use MS XP to rename (e.g. A (1), A (2)) or use Adobe to extract files from a pdf the files are named in such a way that this always happens. Anyway to get around this without manually sorting the files?
A better example of what happens:
A 1
A 10
A 11
A 12
A 13
A 14
A 15
A 16
A 17
A 18
A 19
A 100
A 2
A 20
A 21
A 22
A 23
A 24
A 25
and so on and so forth... where I would like
A 1
A 2
A 3
A 4
A 5...

Looks like a lexicographic ("dictionary" or "telephone book,") order and not numeric order. You could add leading zeros to have all the file names have the same length.

How to maintain signatures when combining PDFs

Dear Forum,
I have an issue when combining PDF files, where the original files with electronic signature field added in Acrobat Pro, the signatures disappear. Is there a way to stop this from happening? I've checked the security setting and currently have everything in the summary settings as allowed, but still the signatures won't carry through into the combined PDF.
Anyone have any solutions?

You absolutely can't combine signed files without destroying the signatures, because signatures apply to the WHOLE file, always. Consider using a portfolio instead.

Error when combining Power Point docs into PDF in Acrobat 11

Hi, Am running Acrobat 11 and am getting an error when attempting to combine files. Trying to combine multiple power point 2007 files into a single PDF using Acrobat 11. Am getting an error "unable to find Adobe PDF resource files. Do you want to run the installer in repair mode". If choose yes or no I get the yellow error icon beside the PP files and eventually have to cancel the job.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Error when combining Visio 2010 files in Acrobat X Pro

Getting the error message No PDF was created because Acrobat encountered an unidentified error when i try to combine Visio 2010 files into one PDF with Acrobat X Pro. Ive done this many many times before and it worked fine. It also works fine on another PC in the office with the same software installed on it. It just decided one day to quit working. Ive tried to reinstall both programs without success. I dont have this issue with any other type of file just Visio 2010 files. I can go into Visio and convert the file there and then combine it with other files after it has been converted as a seperate PDF file, but that is alot more cumbersome than just drag drop and combine. How can I fix this?

Did you updates X or have 10.0.0? The updates are required for use with OFFICE 2010.

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.
