Hi,

I have two pdf files - file A 1500 pages and file B 1000 pages, they are sequentially numbered 1-2500, how do I combine the two files together and maintain their sequence numbering.

Thanks.

I think I see what you are trying to do here. I'm not aware of a way to do that. You may want to ask this in the forum for Acrobat but I don't know of a way myself. They may know of a script or something that could help.

Adobe Acrobat Reader cannot combine files. You would need Adobe Acrobat (the full version) for that.

If you have acrobat, simply open it, go to File>Create>Combine files into a single PDF and choose the two files.

Thanks, I have the full version of Adobe Acrobat.

By combining both files, can I re-order the files ie. file A has sequentially numbered documents of 1,2,4,5,9,12,etc and file B has 3,6,7,8,10,11,etc. What I need to do is ensure that the combined file runs in sequential number order ie 1-12. Can this be done?

Maybe I'm not clear on what exactly you are doing but that should be the result when you combine the files. Can you give me the exact steps you are taking to create the file? Also, a screen shot of the combined file page numbers would be good.
