How to merge PDF docs into one?

How can I merge several individual PDF documents into one? Can I use preview for this?
Thanks
a

If this is a repetitive task, use Automator. Set up a workflow. First use Files & Folders to Get Selected / Specified Finder Items. Then use PDFs Combine PDF Pages (alternatively just drag selected files to the work area rather than use the Files & Folders step). Display the results from this combinng operation, click on it to display it and verify, and then rename it as desired. The operation New PDF from Images should do that last step, but it appears to not work.

Editing merged PDFs?

Hi,
I have to support the following use case:
In various workflows PDF documents are filled with data and collected somewhere. Once a month the head of one department wants to check and correct all of them. Since there are many (more than 100) PDF docs he cannot open each of them. Thus we have to merge them.
As far as I know merging PDF docs means flattening them. That means that the head of the department cannot change any data in the merged PDF he gets. Is there any other way to bundle PDF documents without losing the ability to change the data afterwards? They do not have to be merged physically, it just has to look like they are.
Thanks in advance for your answer.

Arne

If this is a form, converting to Word is a disaster. You should keep it as a PDF. You may need Adobe Acrobat if the limited editing in Reader XI isn't enough.

How do I convert mail merge documents to individual pdf docs and save each with a field in the merge?

How do I convert mail merge documents to individual pdf docs and save each with a field in the merge?

Is this an actual field, or just some piece of static text somewhere? Either way, you can't do it using the Split Document command. You'll need to use a custom-made script to read the value of this "field" and use it when extracting pages from the file.

Splitting and glueing back together pdf docs

Hi,
I wish to cut and then repaste back together a pdf doc? How do I do it?

You can simply delete and reorder pages in Acrobat. Anything beyond that is not something one would do with a PDF. It's by no means an editable format and from text formating changing to images getting rasterized during copy&paste operations there could be a million things that mess up your documents to a point they become unusable. Any such operations would be done on the original source files in teh programs that created the PDF, whichever those may be.

How to merge PDF/Word Doc with the Form I created?

Hi All,
Which software should I use to merger PDF/Word Doc with the form I created.
One more question is I want the form page to show up right next to the ending or in the middle of the word doc . How to manange the placement of the sections?
Please do let me know, its urgent.
Thanks and Regards,
Hari.

1) The option of creating the whole thing as a LiveCycle form means that you need to convert the Word document using LiveCycle Designer. The import utility won't preserve the fidelity of the Word document the way printing to the PDF print driver does. It will likely require a fair bit of tweaking in Designer to get it looking like you want. You will likely get frustrated, since Designer is not a word processor.
2) You can create PDF forms in Acrobat without launching LiveCycle Designer. While they look the same to a user as forms created with LiveCycle Designer, behind the scenes they are very different. When you create a form in Acrobat you overlay fields on top of an existing PDF document that you had previously created using the PDF print driver. There is an extensive scripting model for these "Acroforms". The technology pre-dates LiveCycle yet Adobe continues to improve the two forms models in parallel. In Acrobat, open a PDF and select tools-->forms-->show forms toolbar.
3) I recommend this option if it's feasible. I don't know what you mean by "doesn't show up in a flow". If you're going to use the form in Acrobat 7, then save it as Acrobat 7 compatible in LiveCycle Designer. This is one of the options in the Save As dialog of LiveCycle Designer.

Merging 2 PDF documents together causes WINWORD.EXE to crash

When merging 2 pdf files together, it will work 1 out of 3 times. It seems to use WINWORD.EXE to merge the two files together with the help of the PDFMarkerAPI.dll add in. The current version of Acrobat we are using is 11.0.10.32.
The event viewer reports the following application error when the error occurs;

I have updated Adobe Acrobat to the latest version and performed a repair on the entire Microsoft Office 2013 suite.

It turned out to be the Graphics Driver. Updated it and the problem has gone away. Who would have thought?

How to merge pdf in db, with data in db and serve as PDF doc to browser

Hi,
I have a requirement as:
On an ebusiness suite webpage user clicks on a hyperlink.
This downloads a merged pdf form, as:
a. Retrieve pdf document from fnd_lobs
b. Retrieve the data to be merged from a database table in the format merge_field_name, merge_field_value
c. Merge the data and the pdf on the fly.
d. Return the merge pdf file to the webbowser
I have never used XML etc, and browsing metalink etc, it seems the using XML Publisher may be the best way to go.
So, I would appreciate it if I could have the following answers:
1. Is XML publisher the correct tool to use for this, or is their another technology that may be better suited.
2. As we have a number of ebusiness suite applications licensed, would we need to buy an additional license for XML publisher.
3. If I am on the right track, then any pointers on how to start.
Thanks in advance.
Mark

Hi Mark
1. XMLP will do this for you with a little code.
2. As long as the data for the documents came from the delivered EBS schema (incl flexfields) i.e. not from a custom table. Then you are within the EBS license terms and there would be no extra kicense to purchase.
3.
a. You will need to extract the PDF from fnd_lobs as a PDF document and out it somewhere temporarily.
b. Write the extract and template to format the data into PDF ... this is basic XMLP suff covered in the user guide and the XMLP pages on OTN.
c. You now have your fnd_lobs PDF and the generated one, you can now combine them into a single document using an API. The PDF bookbinder API is the most poweful but there are others available too ... check the user guide for PDFBookBinder and FormProcessor.
d. then you'll need to either stream the resulting PDF to browser yourself or you can use the XMLP OA Framework common region and embed it inside a page.

Which product do I purchase???? - Creating a merged PDF report from excel with cover page

Hi Guys,
I work in the BI field and have created a pdf document using PDFCreator and another third part scripting tool called jpdfbookmarks.
We have delivered something to the client but the quality of the output ( not the best) and the time it takes to cycle through each page ( when being viewed) within the merged
pdf document takes a little time...
So my boss as asked me to explore something within the Adobe suite of products BUT.... i have no idea which one i should choose.
My requirements are as follows:
To deliever this report to the client the program needs to be able to do the following:
1) convert excel files to pdf
2) take these individually created converted excel to pdf converted files and and merge them into 1 document
3) within this merged document have the abilty to be able to bookmark each page
4) have a cover page with hyperlinks
5) and finally but most important of all to be able perform steps 1 to 4 above programatically through scripting language vb script / vba
nice to haves:
6) abilty to email each merged doc to list of email address
7) abilty to edit document to add in hyperlinks etc
Need to get an understanding of costs ie
1) how much per licence
2) what product with have all the features above and how much
Can anyone please be kind enough to point me in the right direction as to what product would be best suited?? Being able
to scipt a solution together is key.
Cheers

You can do everything except the cover page with Adobe Acrobat (Standard or Pro). There are demos on our website that you can install and try out. You will need the SDK documentation and sample code to learn how to automate/program.

VBA Merge PDFs - Error when first and second PDF are the same

Using http://khkonsulting.com/2009/03/adobe-acrobat-and-vba-an-introduction/ as a guide, I am able to successfully merge multiple pdf's together into one document using VBA (Access mdb), except when the PDF being merged to has the same name as the next PDF.
Here's my scenario. An Access table is updated with a list of reports that need to be printed. All of these reports are PDF's. I loop thru this table and merge the PDF's according to an identifier, then print the group. There are times
when there are multiple copies of the same report for an identifier. If the PDF being merged to has the same name of the PDF being merged, an error occurs. How can I handle this situation?
Sample data: This identifier (ESO and Pulling) needs to merge these PDF's (Aaa.PDF) together which happen to have the same name. Aaa.PDF is trying to merge Aaa.PDF and this throws an error.
Aaa.PDF ESO Pulling
Aaa.PDF ESO Pulling
This identifier merges fine despite having the same PDF twice. But the first PDF is not named the same. Xxx.PDF is the first PDF and merges the next two into it. The last two
are named the same.
Xxx.PDF 916 Pulling
Bbb.PDF 916 Pulling
Bbb.PDF 916 Pulling
Code:
pdfDoc1.Open (filesToMerge(1))
numPages = pdfDoc1.GetNumPages()
Set pdfDoc2 = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
Dim i As Integer
For i = 2 To intNbr - 1
pdfDoc2.Open (filesToMerge(i))
If pdfDoc1.InsertPages(numPages - 1, pdfDoc2, 0, pdfDoc2.GetNumPages(), True) = False Then
MsgBox "Cannot insert pages"
End If
pdfDoc2.Close
Next i
If pdfDoc1.Save(PDSaveFull, "C:\....\ReportPacket__" & Trim(CStr(intReportCount)) & "__" & ... & ".pdf") = False Then
MsgBox "Cannot save the modified document"
End If
pdfDoc1.Close
The pdfDoc1.InsertPages command fails, displays "Cannot insert pages", then displays "Method 'Close' of object 'CAccroPDDoc' failed.
Thanks for any help or advice.

Hi
As far as I know, Access didn't provide such method. But I think you are able to achieve this goal through some 3rd party PDF component
Hope this will help you.

In Acrobat Professional 8, what is the best way to insert/combine multiple pdf's together in a large

In Acrobat Professional 8, what is the best way to insert/combine multiple pdf's together in a large volume?
We have 300 pdf reports and need to insert a 2 page cover page infront of each report. Not sure if Batch processing is best???
Thanks for any tips.

Probably each cover page is different too. I would probably just bite the bullet and do each individually. I would create the 2 cover pages in WORD or other word processor and print to cover.pdf. Then open a PDF and Pages>Insert Pages or the cover.pdf to the front of the open PDF and save as to the current PDF. Then repeat 299 times. Each time you would make the appropriate change to the DOC file and print a new cover.pdf file (you might want to turn off open in Acrobat for this processing in the printer properties to save time). Probably a good idea to keep a list of the files to check off what has been done (you can generate a list in DOS by Start>cmd, change the directory to your location [cd path], and do "dir >>list.txt". That will give you a list to use.). There may be an easier way, but by the time you get it figured out you might be done this way.

How to download & how to merge pdfs into one pdf file?

Hello everyone!
I hope someone can help me, because I am SO frustrated right now! I want to create an electronic document of a 40-page thesis I wrote. I no
longer have the original computer files, so I took digital photos of each page.
Then I converted all the jpegs into pdf files.
Now I want to merge these 40 jpegs into one pdf file.
I read that this is possible with Adobe Acrobat 8 or 9. So, yesterday I downloaded the trial version of what I thought was Adobe Acrobat 9. Well,
two whole hours later, all I could find on my computer was Adobe Reader 9, which would not allow me to merge any pdfs.
So, today, I again reinstalled the Adobe Acrobat 9. Now, after waiting another two hours, there is NOTHING on my computer--no Adobe Reader, no Adobe Acrobat, no desktop icons, nothing in the "All Programs" list when I press the Start menu, etc.
What happened? How could something that took so damned long to download be totally invisible on my computer now? I do see Arcsoft, but that is for photographs. Is it possible to merge pdfs together using Arcsoft?
I have SO much other work to do, and I am so disgusted that I have lost two days on this project, just trying to merge pdfs together! Please, if
you have any suggestions as to how to get Adobe Acrobat 9 as a trial version an/or how to merge pdfs, please answer this post!
Thank you very much for your help.
Courtney

Hi. Yes, that is the link from which I downloaded Acrobat 9. I now have this file on my computer: AcroPro90_efg.exe
Yes, I did install it, but one of the times it hanged at 99.96%. Do you know what that means?
Thanks in advance.

Standardise page sizes in merged PDF?

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to merge together a PowerPoint '07 and an Excel '07 file, both set to A4 lanscape page layouts, in Acrobat 9 Standard. However, in the final merged PDF, the old Excel pages are huge compared to the PowerPoint slides - about 6 times larger.
Any ideas how I can force Adobe output a merged PDF all in the same page size and orientation?
Thanks in advance,
Simon

Acrobat's combine feature to merge files into one PDF does not provide a page size "editor".
Likely a cleaner work flow if the input files had page size adjusted by their native application.
Once done, use combine to merge into the single PDF.
You may find this is (over all) easier than using the Crop Tool resize features.
To view any PDF's page size when open in Adobe Reader/Acrobat go into Preferences.
Select the Page Display catagory then tick the "Always show document page size" choice.
Be well

Putting lots of different pictures into different pdf-files together

hi there,
my boss gave me a tricky task and I dont know how to solve the problem without some help. It's about putting lots of different pictures into different pdf-files together. May be you have some ideas how to succeed. Please excuse my german-laced english.
My task is to merge (or put together) about 4-5 pictures into one pdf. the problem: i have 4.000 pictures. the advantage: the pictures that i have to merge are named pretty similar, it looks like:
ab_pictures 1
ab_pictures 2
ab_pictures 3
ab_pictures 4
ab_pictures 5
cd_pictures 1
cd_pictures 2
cd_pictures 3
cd_pictures 4
ef_pictu...etc.
i have to merge ab-picuteres 1-5 to one pdf called "ab_pictures 1", cd_pictures to one pdf called "cd_pictures 1"...
because there are so many picture-groups that i have to merge i was wondering if there is a possibility to automate this task by just telling the programm once what it has to, so it can do it without me sitting next to it, telling it each time what it should do next.
this would safe me a lot (!) of time. Here at my working place there is adobe acrobat reader 9 running, there is also distiller available (I dont know what this appclication is used for).
my question: is it possible to "programm" acrobat that i could do such a task automatically? Or do I have to buy other programms (may be a database-programm or something like that) to be able to it?
thank you very much in advance for your expertise and please excuse my german-laced english.
regards,
scoutee1

Merging PDFs and then saving them as one file in Leopard

Would someone please tell me how I can merge PDF files into one PDF file. I have been able to drag and drop them together in Preview. I would love to be able to save the merged files into one file. Any ideas. I have read a lot online about this possibility in Snow Leopard, but I can't seem to save the dang file.
Help.

Open the first PDF. Open the tray so you can see the file on the left. Drag the other PDFs onto the first file in the tray. You can't just drag into the tray window anymore, you have to drag onto the file itself to merge. Save the file with new name.
Macmost has a good podcast on this subject that came out about a week ago. Shows other PDF tricks with Preview as well.
