Help! Standard v7 I need to merge pdf's or ps files

I need to merge two lists of pdf's or ps files and create one single list of pdfs (or ps files I prefer the output to be pdf). So I'll have two folders(1&2)
Folder 1 Folder 2
a.ps a.ps or a1.ps ( whatever I need to do)
b.ps b.ps or b1.ps
c.ps c.ps or c1.ps
d.ps d.ps or d1.ps
I'll need to merge those in a batch process like distiller or something (its just what I am familiar with) and come out with files:
a.pdf
b.pdf
c.pdf
d.pdf
I was told its a standard function of pro v9

Sounds like all of your questions need to be directed to the folks at zipforms and not here.

Help!! what do I need to merge pdfs?

Ok...I feel a little silly by asking this, but can't find the answer anyone else. I'm needing to combine pdf's into a single file. Right now I only have the reader so I know I need something else. Honestly, the cheapest with this ability is the way I want to go. Is the cheapest software Acrobat Standard? And if so, is this an upgrade from the Reader....because the upgrade is all I see available. And yes, I'm clueless...and need help. All I need it for is for merging pdf's....what are my least expensive options???

Buy Acrobat Standard. It isn't a upgrade from Adobe Reader.

Merging PDF's into one file Error: "File Skipped"

I'm trying to merge multiple files into one. However, on some of the pages I get an error code "File skipped". How do I correct this issue so that I can merge all the files successfully?

This usually means the file has encryption applied (preventing changes), it's been Reader-extended (also preventing changes) or it's an XFA file from LiveCycle Designer. Open the file in question and check the properties.

It would be great, if any one provide solution on this issue.

One of the merged PDF was edited by using the "Adobe Lifecycle Assembler" tool and i was able to open that file successfully in my machine.
Is bi publisher API compatible with such files?
It would be great, if any one can throw some light on this issue.
Thanks,

Need to Merge an Adobe XML file with a normal PDF

The problem...
I have created an order form in Adobe LiveCycle Designer (pre-ES). The customer's requirements force us to merge their purchase order (a flat standard PDF) with the order form I have created to get the complete PDF to bill with. Previously we were using a form created in another software and printing to PDF to merge the 2 PDF files. The thought process with creating a form in LiveCycle Designer was "Oh 2 PDF's we can just merge them" ... we were very WRONG. And please don't suggest "Packaging" the files... it won't work for our processing system... we've already tried .
What we know now (had we known it before we'd have never purchased the licensing for LiveCycle Designer to start with)...
You can NOT merge a PDF that has XML in it with Adobe Proffesional.
Temporary Solution...
We know we can print to PDF and then merge the files... this gets us the result we need, but it takes longer to print to PDF from these XML files than it did from the previous versions of the order forms in created in other software.
Is there another solution?
Plea for help! The users that are forced to do the process of printing to file and merging are ready to riot and/or go back to the "other" software.

Hello!
There are a couple terms you can google:
"PDF Concatenate Forms iText"
"Merge XML data with PDF Forms"
Concatenating PDFs means you join multiple forms together into one PDF.
Did you need to merge, or concatenate the forms?
Either way there are a couple of methods to do this programmably.
iTextSharp (.NET)
iText (Java)
FDFToolkit.net (.NET)
iText products are open source, and have a learning curve, and support is provided on a Open mailing list.
iText products are free ($) but can cost you time and money to research the methods.

Need to merge multiple files into pdf automatically

Guys,
I need to automate merging files into one pdf, i have looked everywhere and cannot seem to find an answer for it. I need to know if there is a command line tool for acrobat so i can use it in my batch file to combine files?

Hi Lauravill,
The free Adobe Reader cannot help you with the merging job. If you have Acrobat Reader then you can merge files into one pdf with the following steps-
Within Acrobat XI, select File > Create > Combine Files into a Single PDF.
Click Add Files and select the files you want to add.
Click, drag, and drop to reorder the files and pages. Double-click on a file to expand and rearrange individual pages. Press the Delete key to remove unwanted content.
When finished arranging the files, click Combine Files.
Select File > Save As > PDF.
Name your PDF file and click Save.
Let us know if you face any problemwith this or need extra support.
Thanks

Need Merging PDF forms in Android Tablet (with a twist!)

Hi guys I was wondering if there is anyway to Merge PDF documents in a Android app and keep the repeating information in forms intact. Let me explain. I have a regular form which cilents fill out but some times another form needs to be filled out also which have the repeating fields like name, date of birth, etc. I know that it is possible to do it in in Acrobat X Pro where you combine two PDF documents and as long as the form field is the same name or copied and pasted in the two seperate PDFs , information repeats itself automatically. However I was wondering if there is a way to do this on an android tablet (Motorola Xoom for me). I have tried apps that merge 2 seperate documents however the information from those that would normally repeat in Acrobat X on a regular computer does not do so in PDF merging apps I tried. I normally use qPDF and ezpdfreader but they don't seem to have a merging of two documents option (Or i don't know/can't find one). So any help? Any useful app I don't know about that can some my dilemia? Thanks ahead !

Hi,
i know this is rather late, but based on what I've read online, it seems your issue is common among pdf form apps on the Android. From what i hear, qPDF Notes works well, but doesn't allow calculations. My guess is that the app developer hasn't loaded/programmed the necessary scripts in order to achieve calculations.

To save as a PDF, you do that from Print
To save as Wrod format, you export

I need to convert PDF to Excel, however, columns and tabs make many merged cells and many blank columns. In addition to not separate the columns correctly, I see many not separate lines together in the same cell. I'm even thinking that Adobe Acrobat Pro DC has limitations. There is no way to define what points in columns to force break column? Nor create many columns that are useless? How does text to column in Excel, fixed size when we import text, and define where the breaks have columns?

PDF does not contain columns, rows, formats, styles, or other aspects of word processing or spreadsheet file formats.
This is because PDF is decidedly not a word processing or spreadsheet file format or something "like" one of those.
(see ISO 32000 for what PDF "is")
What can optimize the export of PDF page content is to start with a well-formed tagged PDF (ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1 compliant).
Without that export is what it is and one performs whatever content cleanup is needed using the native application for the export file (MS Word or Excel).
Be well...

Hi Pat. I've done that, it opens up the install window again. If I click on install it says it's already installed. Nothing comes up that allows me to accept the end user agreement. I just retried and the same thing happens.
I appreciate your help.

I am making an ad for a virtual magazine. It needs to have a hyperlink to my website, but must be submitted in a TIFF, PDF, JPEG, or EPS file. How can I do this with the Photoshop file I have already made? Please Help!!

New to Photoshop here, please help!

Normally the best way to create an add is to to do it and to export it as PDF/X-4.
From Photoshop you can save as PDF, choose either the standard as the printer asks for or save as PDF/X-4.
Never use in any case EPS.
If the add contains vectors and/or fonts PDF is the best file type.
If no text or vectors are used you could use JPG with high compression quality, tiff or (not in your case) psd.
Take care that
Your file is not flattened to background, so all layers are alive, otherwise fonts will be rasterized.
You file should have a resolution in minimum between 240 and 300 ppi (not dpi)
With the text: is it pure black or is it 4c-black? K-Black is easier to accomplish in InDesign.
Don't make small elements in 4c.

I need help convincing my workflow administrator on Illustrator PDF presets.

I need help convincing my workflow administrator on Illustrator PDF presets.
I work at a company which prints folding cartons, pressure sensitive labels, and film packaging. Esko Automation Engine 12 is our primary workflow. We use PDF files saved directly out of Illustrator as the primary file format. At times, the size of an art file can get fairly bloated from scaled images, effects, transparency, etc. The workflow and Ilustrator have a hard time dealing with the file size. It has been suggested to use the "export" function under the File Menu and save the art file as a "normalized PDF". I honestly believe Distiller isn't even remotely involved when you do this. I tried to make the case to use the settings in the dialog box which appears when you save a PDF out of Illustrator. I know for a fact that this dialog box isn't any different from what you see in Distiller. From my years of experience with Kodak Prinergy, I know things like bicubic downsampling, etc. will not hurt the file. The workflow administrator thinks otherwise. Can anybody point me in the direction of Illustrator PDF presets that would convince him otherwise?

Brian,
What is somewhat confusing in your post is your mentioning a capability to export PDF from the File Menu as a normalized PDF file. There is no such option in Adobe Illustrator, at least as it comes directly from Adobe. You may use the File=>Save As dialog to save the file as a PDF file, but PDF is not an option under File=>Export. Furthermore, in terms of the .joboptions provided by Adobe, there is no Normalized PDF joboptions settings.
You mention Esko. Is it possible that you have one of Esko's products installed that provides proprietary plug-ins to Adobe Illustrator? If so, that may be the source of this Normalized PDF option. Maybe some other participant in the is forum knows more about that, but at Adobe, we don't (for better or worse).
You mention problems with file bloat due to “scaled images, effects, transparency, etc.” Are you referring to the Illustrator .AI files or to PDF files created from same? If the issue is the .AI file size, the only thing you can do to fix that is to uncheck the save as compatible PDF file option when saving .AI. In terms of PDF files from Adobe Illustrator:
(1) Scaled images should not add anything to a PDF file size unless you take such images and attempt to upres them in Photoshop prior to creating PDF. There really is no benefit to be achieved by such upresing of the images; any competent RIP can do that itself just as well as Photoshop.
(2) Transparency only adds to the PDF file size if you create PDF with transparency already flattened, or what I would better describe as ruined. Flattening transparency often causes large raster bitmaps and/or very complex groups of vector objects to be created to simulate transparency in an opaque imaging model (such as is supported by PostScript).
You obviously need to produce PDF that can be accommodated by the rest of your workflow. Since we don't know what that is and whether it conforms to current best industry practices, we cannot make an absolute recommendation for you.
However, generally speaking, the most reliable PDF print publishing workflow would generally require that you create PDF/X-4 using the PDF/X-4 PDF preset from Adobe Illustrator (or for that matter, from InDesign as well). PDF/X-4 supports full ICC color management (including spot colors), the entire PDF imaging model, and live transparency.
