Greetings

Hi, I am Epiphane, an adobe reader user, Do you mind If I make a suggestion to include a feature that can allow users to save many open docs in a single Abobe-reader file ( I don't know how you can call it, maybe reading List).

In fact, I am doing a research and have to read many docs but each time I close the app, I have to open individually all the previous docs (25 of more) individually. This is very tedious, It will look like to "save a playlist for future reading. It'll be great. I look forward to hearing from you.

As mentioned, this can be done using Acrobat by merging the files, but there's another option that will work in Reader as well, and that is to use a "session" to save the files you're reading, down to the exact location where you left them. This requires using a script, though.

I've developed a (paid-for) tool that does just that. If you're interested you can find it here: Custom-made Adobe Scripts: Acrobat/Reader -- Save and Load Sessions

Hi Epiphane,

The paid version of Adobe Acrobat allows you to combine PDFs and other files into one PDF or to retain their identity in a Portfolio. The free version that you are using does not.

This is a user forum. The place for feature requests is here: Share your feedback on Acrobat DC
