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

Error message when trying to merge multiple files into single PDF file

Greetings! I'm on windows 7 professional, adobe 9 pro and a 64 bit PC. When I try to merge several PDF files from the same folder into a single PDF file I get this error message "You can choose multiple items only if they are all located in the same folder" - Please help! Thx.

The product is Acrobat, not Adobe. That being said, I suspect you may only be running AA 9.0 and that may be the issue. If you have not done the updates to the 9.5.5, you probably should. That may fix the issue you are having, particularly since you mentioned a 64-bit system.

Acrobat Professional 9 error merge multiple files into one file

In the same file I made the text boxes and then I have produced more than one file, I then tried to merge into a single file but the software copies the same pages of the first file.
Let me explain:
1) in the first file number 1 I have 3 pages, these pages I have text boxes and then I saved the file with no 2, then No. 3, then 4;
2) I took the first file and the file I downloaded in the last 2,3,4
3) I opened the software to control and I copied the file multiple times n. 1 just
4) so now I have to file a repeated 4 times in a single file.
What should I do to be merged into a single file as separate files?
Perhaps this warning is that you understand the problem, since I used the same page by giving it a different name just because I made some text boxes with different content, that is, the program identifies the file and then continues to quote the same as another copy the same file, then I should change the form field for each file. How should I proceed?
Of course I followed the instructions of the notice but the thing has not changed, all the files you copy the same.
I enclose a picture

Sorry, this is the Adobe Connect support forum and not related to Acrobat. Suggest you re-post to the Adobe Acrobat forum for help with this question. Thank you.

Setting Font for converting multiple text files into PDF using VB 6.0

Dear All,
Am converting multiple text files into PDF using VB6.0. Currently, am unable to control the font face and size for the generated files. Below is the procedure am using for each file;
Public Sub proc_convert_to_PDF(srcFilename As String, destFilename As String)
Dim p_AcroApp As CAcroApp
Dim p_VDoc As CAcroAVDoc
Dim p_DDoc As CAcroPDDoc
Dim IsOk As Boolean
Set p_AcroApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
Set p_VDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDoc")
Call p_VDoc.Open(srcFilename, "")
Set p_VDoc = p_AcroApp.GetActiveDoc
If p_VDoc.IsValid Then
Set p_DDoc = p_VDoc.GetPDDoc
' Fill in pdf properties.
p_DDoc.SetInfo "Title", Format(Date, "dd-mm-yyy")
p_DDoc.SetInfo "Subject", srcFilename
If p_DDoc.Save(1 Or 4 Or 32, destFilename) <> True Then
MsgBox "Failed to save " & srcFilename
End If
p_DDoc.Close
End If
'Close the PDF
p_VDoc.Close True
p_AcroApp.Exit
'Clear Variables
Set p_DDoc = Nothing
Set p_VDoc = Nothing
Set p_AcroApp = Nothing
End Sub
What I need;
1) to be able to set the font face of the destination file ( destFilename)
2) to be able to set the font size of the destination file ( destFilename)
Am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Type Library
Kindly Help.
Thanks in advance

We didn't say it doesn't work. We said it isn't supported.
There are a number of other ways to make a PDF. The one which would
give the most control is if your application directly printed to GDI,
controlling the font directly. This could print to Adobe PDF.
You could look for an application that gives control of font for
printing.
You could use a text-to-PostScript system and distill the result. You
could even look for a non-Adobe text-to-PDF.
Working in the unsupported and dangerous world you chose, the font
size for text conversion is set (and this is very bad design from
Adobe) in the settings for Create PDF > From Web Page. There is no API
to this.

Hiding filenames when combining multiple files into a single .pdf

I'm fairly new to this Acrobat X. I'm trying to assemble my portfolio to distribute to employers but I cannot seem to get rid/hide the filenames in the final pdf file. I was using the option to 'combine multiple files into a single pdf' because I was compiling images and documents to a single readable pdf file. I got all that done but once I open it, I'd see that each page would still contain the original file names rather than page numbers - which I prefer not to have employers see for the sake of tidiness (and I refuse to use the Adobe portfolio because it's not really efficient on space or design. I prefer a simple page-by-page pdf). So I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to hide my file names, change them into page numbers or getting rid of them all together so the 'Table of Contents' in the pdf preview mode would not show anything, I would really much appreciate it.
-Ss

Well, when the .pdf is in the final, deliverable form; I open it in Mac preview mode and the sidebar is always extended showing a 'table of contents' rather than having each document in the pdf file have a number designating a page name, it shows each individual filename the pdf is composed of. Not too sure about bookmark, though. Thanks for the reply!
If you want, I can send the file to you.

Help merging 3d files into one 3d-pdf-scene

Is it possible with the LCS to merge 3d-files into a single 3d-pdf-scene just like it is in the Adobe 3D Reviewer? I don't have a "Master"-file that defines an assembly like a catia *.CATProduct file so I can't refer supporting documents in the Generator3D. I also tried the assembler-service but with that I was only able to create a PDF that holds all the single 3d-data on different pages and therefore in seperated 3d-scenes.
thanks

Hi Timo,
If you are still interested in this functionality to merge 3D files in batch, please contact me at [email protected] to discuss further.
Thanks.

Converting Multiple .EPS files into .PDF

Dear Forum: We have tried converting multiple .eps files into PDF using article 325977. This article in Adobe help is really designed to convert .ai files into either .eps or.pdf, our situation is to convert multiple .eps files into PDF. Everytime we run the macro, it simply takes the eps file and saves it as another eps file and does not convert. We have a "Save As" step that we have in the macro that is set to "Save As" PDF, but it still does not work. What are we doing wrong?

Hi mephisto11757,
You can convert the following file types to PDF with the Adobe CreatePDF service:
Adobe Creative Suite® file formats Examples include: .psd, .ai, .indd
Microsoft Word (2000, XP, 2003, 2007, 2010, & 2011) .doc, .docx
Microsoft Excel (2000, XP, 2003, 2007, 2010, & 2011) .xls, .xlsx
Microsoft PowerPoint (2000, XP, 2003, 2007, 2010, & 2011) .ppt, .pptx
Microsoft Publisher (2000, XP, 2003, 2007, 2010, & 2011) .pub
Text Files .txt
Rich Text Format .rtf
Adobe PostScript .ps
OpenOffice Format .odt
Star Office .sxw, .sxi, .sxc, .sxd, .stw

__Is there a way to 'merge' multiple curves into a single curve?

__Is there a way to 'merge' multiple curves into a single curve?
By this I mean I have file with 2-12 curve layers - I wanted to 'merge' the curves so that I can end up with a single curve with the attributes of many. Maybe is there a script that would do this?

I don't mean to be critical, but how do you get to a situation where you have 12 successive Curves layers?
The advantage to a Curves layer is that you can adjust and re-adjust it to your heart's content.
If you're habitually adding new Curves layers one over the other, maybe you should re-evaluate your process of working... Perhaps the way you're thinking you should just work at a high bit depth and do repeated Curves operations on the pixels? Or put some time into retraining yourself to not add a new Curves layer but to manipulate the one that's already there. There are some nice new enhancements (e.g., the "finger" subtool that allows you to choose a spot in the image and manipulate that part of the curve).
Again, I'm not trying to criticize you, just looking to see if maybe there's a way to avoid getting to the point where you need to combine Curves in the first place, since there's no direct "Merge Curves" capability, outside of just stamping a set of image and adjustment layers into pixels. For completeness I suppose I should mention how to do that... You can Stamp any combination of visible layers into a single layer of pixels (effectively combining all the Curves layers et. al.) by pressing Control - Shift - Alt - E.

Converting files into PDF/A format

Hello,
My main questions are:
1) How can I convert a normal document (say, word document) into PDF/A format using Adobe Acrobat 8.0 standard (that's what we use in the office)?
2) When we convert a file into PDF using Adobe Acrobat, does it save the file automatically in PDF/A format or is it normal PDF?
3) How can I tell if a file is in PDF/A format? Will it have a different extension than PDF?
4) What disadvantages are there related to PDF/A format (if any)?

Thanks pogopossum,
I'm using now Goodreader. This has also the advantage of a good interlinking to other available documents.
This is also not functioning with ibooks. Goodreader has some drawbacks compared to ibooks.
You cannot recognize the books easily since no frontpages are present and you need to scroll more to find the correct document. A annoying thing is that once you enlarge the index and jump to a linked page that page will show up in the enlarged fashion. So you always need to resize the new page. This problem is not present in ibooks. An enormous good feature of Goodreader is the easy and many ways to import files.

How to upload multiple files into a server location at a single time

Hi All,
In my application i need to send multiple files from a particular page into the server location. In this page there will be an option to upload a file and after selecting the file , we will have an option asking if we were interested to send another file. It works just similar to google mail where we can multiple files at the same time. Right now though i had coded the uploading files concept i am facing some problems when trying to upload multiple files. All the files are being appended to a single file but i want them to be placed as different files at the specified location. Plz help me in this regard...
Thanks in advance................,,

Hi,
i am sending the code in my prg. Have a look at it.
var multi_selector = new MultiSelector( document.getElementById( 'files_list' ),3);
In the above line i am specyfying that the maximum no. of files to be uploaded is 3. So if i upload less than 3 files, the program doesn't work and is not reading the uploaded files. If i upload 3 files it works fine. So please suggest me how to make this work irrespective of the no. of files uploaded using apache commons.
My code is as follows:
<form action="./servlet/Sample" method = "post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
     
     <input id="my_file_element" type="file" name="file_1" >
     <input type="submit" name="submit1" value="submit">
</form>
Files:

<div id="files_list"></div>
<script>
     
     var multi_selector = new MultiSelector( document.getElementById( 'files_list' ),3);
     
     multi_selector.addElement( document.getElementById( 'my_file_element' ) );
</script>

Is there a simple way to merge mp3 files into one mp3 file:

Is there a way to simply merge multiple mp3s into one? I have audacity; however, that program becomes cumbersome when merging multiple files.
My thanks to anyone for help on this one.

I have audacity; however, that program becomes cumbersome when merging multiple files.
How true! I had to do this recently and used Audacity for the task, having nothing else suitable (that I know of, at least). My method was to open each MP3 in its own Audacity window, select and copy all of the second file, close its window, and paste it into the end of the first file, repeating the process for each additional MP3. After all the pieces are in place, export the whole thing as a new MP3. This was cumbersome indeed, and it took concentration to remember which file was which and avoid assembling the pieces in the wrong order. This description will make a lot more sense to someone who has done it than to anyone who hasn't.
All of this is to say that if you get a better answer than my kludgey Audacity method, I'll be as grateful as you are.

I want to merge mp3 files into one file so i can play a mix in i tunes without pauze

Audacity is what you need.
Obviously you need to create a new MP3 file of the combined songs and not delete the originals.
If your DJ-ing and/or just have too many songs to do that, then look at the free VirtualDJHome version, gives you a lot of control over your music playback.

Possibility to execute Acrobat Pro's "Combine files into PDF" function from within SAP?

Good day.
Presently, a company uses Acrobat Pro to manually combine files such as *.pdf, *.jpg, *.doc, which have been downloaded from SAP's Document Management System, into one pdf file. I would like to know if it is possible to automatically execute Acrobat Pro's "Combine files into PDF" function from within SAP (ECC 6.0) application system. I'm wondering if this could be achieved from a program via OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) or RFC (remote function call).
Thanks in advance for your thoughts and inputs.

Yes, you can combine PDF files via IAC/COM methods.
