    Is Acrobat able to convert the EPS files separately?

    If not, what happens?

    What happens when trying to combine the EPS files?

    I asked Acrobat to read in 6 eps files, all the same kind and size (426kb). It read the first in, in about 4 secs, the second in 5 sec, the third in about 5 secs, the 4th in about 60 secs, the 5th in about 80 secs and I stopped then and deleted the pdf files created.

    I then asked to open a single eps file and this time it took more than 120 sec to read it in.

    I next quit acrobat and quit Distiller. Opened acrobat again and read in the same eps file. This time it took 6 secs.

    Hey Mike,

    Would you mind confirming the exact version of Acrobat DC you are working currently? I believe you are working on Mac, if yes, then what is exact Mac OS?

    If you have managed to find the solution, please share your findings.

    Thanks,
