How to Reverse Page Order in Acrobat Pro 9

Hello Community,
I thought this would be an easy thing to do in Acrobat but so far I am finding it is not.
I am creating a PDF from multiple files, they are jpegs, and I am dragging and dropping them into the "combine files" window in the order I want them to be displayed. However Acrobat reverses this order as you put them in and then gives you no chance to switch the order. It gives you the option to move the order one by one (which is nearly impossible when the jpeg titles are img1824, img1623, etc.) so they other option is to add the files I want backwards, which my brain can not do, I like to work forwards, not backwards nor should I have to.
So once I create this backwards PDF, isn't there a way to just reverse the order of the pages? any help is appreciated.

Wow GQDiaz,
What a wonderful gift you have given us! You have saved me hours of shuffling pages one by one between large cumbersome document scans.
Your script works like a dream. Thank you for this gift.
With kind regards,

  • How to change page order in Acrobat Porfolio?

    How to change page order in Acrobat Porfolio? In older versions it use to be much easier to drag and drop the page order. I don't see any menu options on arranging the pag order. Any ideas? Thanks.
    I would post a screenshot but they have been disabled on these forums.

    You should ask in the Reader forum. But my guess is that Reader there is nothing you can do. Acrobat allows you to move pages around, but not Reader.

  • About setting tab order in Acrobat Pro X

    I'm really disappointed in the way you changed how I set tab order in Acrobat Pro X. I work with a lot of forms with multiple fields. Some of these forms have up to 100 different fields on one page that need to be in the order I set. In previous versions, I could set this order simply by clicking on the fields in the correct order I want. But with X, I have to drag each field one by one into the correct order. When you have a bunch of fields to set, this is tedious. And, when I click on a field to edit content, more times than not, it changes the tab order, and I'm back to finding it in the panel and dragging it back to it's correct place. This is time consuming. Not to mention when there are more fields than the monitor's height, the fields are scrolled in the panel.
    So, please do something to give me the option to set tab order like in previous versions, and once they are set, leave them where they are. Or am I doing something wrong?

    You're not doing anything wrong, it really sucks. But things are improved significantly with Acrobat 11. First, there's a preference setting that prevents the automatic reordering that can happen when fields are moved/edited. Second, you are able to select and move multiple fields at a time in the fields panel, which can speed things up considerably. It's still not as efficient as the old method, but at least it has finally been addressed. I think this feature alone is worth the upgrade price for the amount of time it will save and the beneficial effects on stress, blood pressure, and hair loss.

  • How can I manage to install Acrobat Pro XI in Safari ?

    Pascal Guernier May 5, 2014 8:26 AM
    Hi,
    Someone can tell me how I can manage to install Acrobat Pro XI as the default PDF reader ?
    Before I tried to remove Acrobat Reader XI from my MacBook Pro retina under Mac OS.X.9.2. With the help of Apple's phone support.
    We did clear all caches in libraries and in other places. But, rapidly perhaps, I've deleted a folder name Reader with The XI version ? Was it Acrobat Reader or Acrobat Pro ? I don't know ?
    Thank you for support because I'm in the french's taxes declaration...
    Best,
    Pascal

    Thank you for your question.
    First because I was unable to save a document with a right click. Just able to print, rotate and nothing more. And a mini left screen's menu. Except thumbnails and page number, no option.  And all the Acrobat Tools were not proposed. Such edit, remove a page. Optimize And so on.
    So I did believe it was a reduced version of Acrobat pro : Acrobat reader. A good tool too.
    The possible solution suggested by an another user was to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat Pro.
    In fact I succeeded by unistalling Acrobat Pro XI with the appropriate tool : an uninstaller. Located in the an adobe folder in Utility Tools. So I uninstall Acrobat Pro correctly. A cleaner is proposed for windows system at labs.adobe.com
    And I erased by throwing it, in the TrashCan, Acrobat READER.
    Then with Creative Cloud tool and my account I reinstalled Acrobat Pro XI.
    And then I followed Adobe's manual tips. First I chose a Pdf file. With a right click. And in the contextual menu I chose Informations. Then I selected Acrobat Pro XI as THE défaut reader. With an option named Complete too. In order that any PDF file will be opened by Acrobat Pro XI.
    And it seems to work.
    But your question is pertinent. Because if I had after a way to save the document with a Save icon, this doc. was a sensible one : my income taxes of 2013 provided by the french ministry of finance...
    So I was able to save this doc. And after in Acrobat Pro with usual tools I did compile all the compulsory others pdf docs.
    Thank you and Best regards

  • Change page size in Acrobat Pro 6.0

    Hello, I'm wondering if there's a way to change page sizes in Acrobat Pro 6.0 for Windows. We are receiving manuscripts which have been assembled from various documents. They're going to be printed at 8.5 x 11, but sometimes some of the pages are 7 x 10. Is there an automated way to change all the 7 x 10 pages to 8.5 x 11? We don't want to have to do each page individually because there are too many of them.
    Many thanks,
    Coral

    You could try printing to a new PDF with the PDF printer, setting the page size to 8.5 x 11 and setting the page scaling option to 'Fit to Printable Area'.  This will hopefully leave the existing 8.5 x 11 ones about the same size (it may shrink them slightly) and scale the other sizes.

  • Reverse page order in pdf?

    Is there a easy / cheap tool or method to reverse the page order for a multi-page .pdf document?
    I think something like Adobe Writer might do it, but I don't need to do this very often, and was hoping to find a cheaper way, or shareware product...
    I can manually rearrange the pages in something like PDFLab, but this can be time-consuming for larger documents...
    My printer lets me print in reverse page order, but I can't seem to make it print to .pdf in reverse order?
    Any ideas!?
    Thanks!
    Mark

    You can use this Action to reverse it back:

  • How to reverse clip order in FCP7 timeline?

    I'd like to reverse the order of clips in my FCP7 timeline  (NOT reversing each individual clip). I want to show some clips on the timeline and then immediatley play the same set of clips in reverse order (not each individual clip in reverse order).
    Is there a way to reverse the order of the clips in the FCP7 timeline?
    Thanks!

    In other words, Meg, you're saying you don't know of any way to do what I'm talking about?
    Of course I could manually place them in reverse order, one by one - but that's not what I asked about. I asked how to reverse the order of the clips.
    To suggest manually rearranging the order of the clips in reverse would be like if someone asked how to reverse the play direction of one clip, and someone were to reply with a suggestion of rearranging the individual frames, one by one, until reverse playback of the clip were achieved.
    Let me try to clarify for anyone else that may read this, to avoid further difficulty understanding what I'm saying....
    I want to know how to take a series of clips that are on a timeline (i.e. Clips A, B, C, D, E, F), and get them to be put in the opposite order on the timeline (i.e. Clips F, E, D, C, B, A).  I DO NOT WANT to manually rearrange the clips, NOR rearrange copies of the clips, NOR take the Clips from the bin and place them in reverse order on the timeline.
    The point to my query is to avoid the time-consuming effort of manually placing clips in reverse order, if there is a way to do this (just like instead of taking a clip and painstakingly copy/paste each frame, one-by-one, in the opposite order of its natural way, you just Modify the Speed to Reverse).
    Make sense?

  • Reverse page order of PDF

    Hi,
    I need to reverse page order of a PDF file. I tried Preview and Automator but couldn't find right option.
    Printer driver has a reverse order option but when I did Save As PDF, it doesn't seem to work.
    I tried a utility called Moonwalk but it does not run on my system with no reason.
    Any solution? I prefer Automator action but any idea will be welcome.
    What I'm doing is scanning documents. My scanner has ADF but does not duplex scanning. Thankfully, Automator make it possible to combine odd and even pages but the even pages should be reversed before scanning. If there is an Automator action for it, it will be great.

    I agree the tone was too sarcastic and perhaps below the belt - so my apologies.
    It is so very frustrating to have to wade through pages of superfluous, and in many cases inane, chatter that getting to the heart of the matter is impossible.
    As a case in point, we can't even PM each other which is why I have to add this post to a public thread - making the problem worse.
    And really, the problem isn't people here, or even in OS X. The problem is Apple.
    Apple have for some time become so cavalier and imperious to a such a degree that it grates when we are left to fend for ourselves in this manner. Of course they have always had a touch of the blue-stocking but it beggars belief that they are set to go the way of IBM, Microsoft and Nokia - these org's that have forgotten to treat the hand that feeds it with the respect it deserves. It may be that nobody is sticking up for Apple but adding red-herrings here is only making matters harder.
    Let's face it, it's just so self-defeating that anything supposedly this good, ought take this level of involvement, just to do the blindly obvious. You'd expect this from things like Linux, Openoffice etc. where the effort relies mainly on volunteers (in their spare time to a large degree). But with the amount of dosh Apple sit on - and continue to take - it seems only too clear where this is going to end and no amount of the 'cool factor' is going to change that.
    Something's gotta give - wish this stuff would work - just so fed up! :-(
    P.S. Hate to say this but I fixed this problem for myself using Win Vista & pdfforge (see http://www.pdfforge.org/)

    read through the list from the end to the start, putting each element into a new list. then replace the original list with the new one.
    lots of ways it can be done.
    dont ask me which is more efficient. the stack suggestion sounds pretty good.
