How can I combine hundreds of PDF without merging their form fields?

I have a PDF that has dozens of form fields. I have completed several hundred copies of this form, each with different information entered into these form fields. I would like to combine these PDFs into a single PDF such that the form fields do not merge. I understand that creating a PDF Portfolio will accomplish this But here's the curveball; whatever the solution, it must fit into an existing PDF Portfolio.
So, if the PDF Portfolio is the only solution, is it possible to nest portfolios and, if so, how?

I tried both solutions and neither worked. Flattening the layers did not correct the problem of form fields merging when two PDFs are combined into one. On flattening, should the action just be Flatten Layers or is there another step?
Also, while I can add my new PDF portfolio to an existing portfolio, it doesn't open within it. Instead, it opens as a separate portfolio. I need the files to open within the portfolio.

How can I convert text to pdf without the pathname showing in new doc?

Hi,
I had this worked out in v.7 but now in v.8 it seems to be different and/or I just plain forgot how to do it.
I want to not see the path name anywhere in the document when I make a new pdf document from a text file. It seems to do it by default.
But there is no way to remove as a header or footer since it doesn't see it as such. So I can't look up how to do it in the help menu because I don't know what that added line is called if not a header.
Please help. I don't want to have to keep going back to my v.7 Acrobat.
Thanks.

Go to Create PDF From Web Page. Change the settings to remove headers
and footers and it will (somewhat surprisingly) affect TXT conversion.

HT204053 How can I get an icloud account without merging my husbands iphone info, we have same itunes acct

My family shares the same itunes account on all three iphones and my ipad. I am trying to back up my iphone data without having it merge with my husband and daughters iphone. How do I do this? I just tried to back up my device in itunes with a protected password and it will not back up. Can I create an icloud account for my phone and different icloud accounts for my husband and daughter and still keep our itunes account?
Thanks
Denise

Yes, you can do that. Just create a new iCloud account for you:
1. "Settings > iCloud" (log out from your husbands account, if you are signed in and delete this account from your iPhone)
2. Create a new iCloud account on your iPhone with a free me.com email address:
"Setting > iCloud"
or
"Setting > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > iCloud"
3. After that you will have the opportunity to sync and backup your personal mail, contacts, calendars, reminders, notes etc. completely separated from your husbands account.
4. But make sure to keep your husbands account for iTunes and app purchases:
"Settings > iTunes & App Stores"
I hope that answers your question and will help you.

How can I combine different pdf files in one?

Sara,
It is not working. I wish to decline in having the pdf pack. How can I give up this purchase? I definitely do not want the Adobe PDF Pack anymore.
Who do I have to contact or what do I need to do to cancel this purchase?

How can I combine different pdf files in one?
created by Sara.Forsberg in Adobe PDF Pack - View the full discussion
Hi Flávia,
Adobe PDF Pack is an online subscription--it definitely allows you to combine several files into one PDF file. For more information about PDF Pack, see Reliably Create PDFs, Convert PDFs, & Merge PDFs Online | Adobe PDF Pack. If you don't have the full version of Acrobat, this is a great solution for combining PDF files.
However, if you're using Acrobat (not Adobe Reader), you combine files by following these steps:
Open a PDF file that you want to add pages to.
Click the Pages pane on the Tools panel (on the right side of the application).
Click Insert From File, and choose the file that you want to combine with the PDF that you opened in step 1.
Make any changes necessary in the Insert Pages dialog box--these settings determine where the new file will be inserted.
Click OK.
Please let me know how it goes.
Best,
Sara

How can you combine 2 shapes while preserving individual colors?

I want to be able to apply vector textures [for t-shirts for example] by knocking the texture shape out of the original shape. Now, say I have a logo with several layers, or a bunch of shapes together, and I want to apply ONE texture across the entire thing (as a knockout). What is the best way to go about this.
And as my question asks, how can I combine two objects into one shape without making them one color? Using the pathfinder of course. Aka, while still maintaining individual colors. Thanks!

I don't have a specific project in mind, but I can mock one up. Okay, so in this example I have a "logo" that has text (in outlines), a gradient, and another shape (it's not a stroke) behind everything. And on the side you can see my texture. Normally, using the "minus front" feature, you can knock the texture out of the shape. But that doesn't work for a complicated combination of shapes (even if it's grouped).
Solutions for this?
I should start a whole post about every possible way to apply textures in Illustrator. Because I know a few different ways, but they all seem to have problems....

How can I make an editable pdf file from Indesign?

I have created a Indesign dealer catalog for my company and exported it into a interactive PDF for the Engineers to use when helping a customer with ordering. Now they would like to be able to edit the PDF with notes whenever they want. How can they do this?

PDFs are not designed to be editable. Your engineers can make comments using Adobe Reader without any extra steps provided they use the highlight and sticky note comments. If you want them to have access to the full range of comment markup you will need to use Acrobat to apply extended rights to the file.

You can make a PDF file out of you notes and handouts but using the Adobe PDF printer.
Open your PowerPoint Document then go to “File” “Print”
Select ‘Adobe PDF” Printer
Under slides, select which way you want to print. Note it will not print to a printer but to a PDF file.
After then go into printer Properties and Setup PDF properties, do the following: (see second image below)
Default: PDF/A 1-b
Adobe Security: none (change as needed)
Adobe Output folder: Prompt for Adobe file name
Adobe Page size: Letter (change as needed)
Check the following check boxes
View Adobe PDf Results,
Add Document Information,
Rely on system fonts only,
Delete Log files for successful jobs.
Select OK
A pop will ask you where you want to save the document. The file extension should be PDF. After giving the file name select okay and the file should popup as a PDF. Down side is if you want to speaker notes included then you will have to do another file, like wise with just screen shots then combine into one PDF document.
I used Acrobat IX Pro. So to do this you need Acrobat IX or X Pro.
Hope this will help.

How can I transfer a big .pdf file e.g. 9 MB from my Macintosh Performa 5200 and its OS 8.1 to an USB-flash drive?

How can I transfer a big .pdf file e.g. 9 MB from my Macintosh Performa 5200 and its OS 8.1 to an USB flash drive? E.g. is there any adapter available in order to connect the SCSI with USB? Or is it better to use a compression software and transfer it to 10 3,5" floppy discs?
Thank you
Emanuel

Hello Emanuel,
The Performa 5200CD did not have built-in Ethernet as standard, so unless an Ethernet card (or an external SCSI or LocalTalk-to-Ethernet adapter) has been added, that method would not be available in this case.
Your suggestion involving compression software (such as an appropriate version of StuffIt) with segmenting capabilities could of course be one alternative.
If you have an internal or external modem for the Performa, another way could be to use the telephone lines for transfers. A communications program would have to be used on both sides (for example, ZTerm or the communications section of ClarisWorks on the Performa).
It is even possible to connect two serial modems directly. A simple line simulator (in principle, a 9 V battery in series with a 680 ohm resistor in one of the leads in an RJ-11 to RJ-11 cable), which can be built in a couple of minutes, is sometimes needed. Do NOT use a line simulator for units connected to the public telephone network.
Yet another solution could be a null-modem transfer to a PC with a (DB-9M) serial port. This would require a null-modem cable (can be designed by combining a Macintosh modem cable (MiniDIN-8M to DB-25M) with a normal PC-style (DB-25F to DB-9F) null-modem cable . HyperTerminal or another communications program can be used on the PC.
What do you have to work with (other computers/models/platforms)? Is this a one-time transfer, or do you plan to send additional files later? Is the intention to continue to use the Performa 5200?

How can I move columns in Numbers without distorting the formula in other cells? In Excel I can cut and paste entire columns and the formula in other cells adjusts accordingly. When I do it in Numbers, the formula messes up. How can I do this?

How can I move columns in Numbers without distorting the formula in other cells? In Excel I can cut and paste entire columns and the formula in other cells adjusts accordingly. When I do it in Numbers, the formula messes up. How can I do this?
For example: I have formulas in columns D and F that relate to columns C to CU
If I want to move one column from one position to another (say S to T), the formula loses the colums that was moved, i.e. it doesn't recognize it has moved, rather sees it as deleted... How can I do this without distorting the formula?

Thanks for the feedback.
If I often urge askers to look at the available resources, it's because a large range of questions asked in the forums are already answered in these documents.
As they are PDFs, they are easy to search in.
CAUTION
Download them while they are available.
Given what is delivered with iBooks Author, I'm afraid that we will not get such easy to use documents.
Searching infos in the iBooks Author documentation available on line is awfully cumbersome and a lot of embedded links are wrongly flagged this way. In the Help files they aren't links but underlined strings.
It seems that the tool used to generate the web pages was wrongly configured.

How do I combine (stack) my pdfs attached to my email?

I use a system called docusign. When my documents completed through docusign, it returns to me by email as pdf attachments. How can i combine my pdfs?

@John M:
Thks so much for your help.
We now manage the attachments a lot bettter.
But, Apple sure makes it hard on us. Love their products, but patience is tested with their average software (exhibit A: sync with iPad, the lack of compatibility for the same program; I can't see the attachments on my mobile hardware).
iCal, no fonts, colors, etc. Please!
Another case in point: I repeat an event 3 times, but then decide to delete the last 2 times (keeping only the original event). Later, I want to repeat the same event. No more 'repeat' option in Get Info window. Solution: Duplicate, Drag attached files from one Info window to the other, Delete first window. Ouch!
Again, thks a ton for your help. I'm clicking now on 'Correct Answer'.

My MacBook Air is in a support profile for one of my Apple IDs while all my other devices are in a support profile for a different one of my Apple IDs; how can I combine under one?

My MacBook Air is in a support profile for one of my Apple IDs while all my other devices are in a support profile for a different one of my Apple IDs; how can I combine under one?

Actually, this can be done without merging Apple IDs, as I found just by trying this out: I went into the support profile for the Apple ID that had only my Mac listed. I then chose to disassociate the Mac from that Apple ID. I signed out and signed in using my other Apple ID (the one with all my other Apple devices). I chose to add/register a new device, entered my Mac's serial number, and now it is associated with all my other Apple devices under a single Apple ID. No merger of Apple IDs required.

In chrome I'm getting green double underline hyperlinks to ads. How can I get rid of this without adding more junk to the computer?

I have both safari and chrome, because I'm used to chrome. The only extension I have is Google docs. I started getting green double underline hyperlinks to ads. How can I get rid of this without adding more junk to the computer? People suggest programs to do it, but how do I know they won't make it worse?
Is someone from Apple here and can answer?
Thanks!

You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
Step 2
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
          Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
/Library/Application Support/VSearch
/System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Internet criminal behind VSearch has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
