How do I combine over 415 MB's worth of PDF's into a single PDF?

I'm really stuck here, I can't seem to combine my 62 individual PDF's into one single PDF on DC.  It will allow for maybe 20 or so. I've tried different compression methods, none of which changed my file size by very much, and have tried multiple types of pdf merging software to no avail because of the size.  Is there a trick to getting around this on Acrobat DC?  What do people do?  I also have Photoshop Elements 15, which allows me to save as PDF for each image, but no ability to combine as one either.  This is for a coloring book.  Thanks!

Thank you, I did figure out that I needed the pro version enabled for everything I needed, I just had the pdf pack which was more limited.  Thanks for getting back to me!

Hi Jackieb,

If you are combining file through the Adobe Acrobat DC. So there is no specific size limit that has been set for the Acrobat.

merging pdf files size limitation (if any) (Combine Files)

As a work around what you can do is to combine the files as many as you can (as mentioned above that you can do around 20) "Save" it as new PDF and after that combine that PDF (just combined) to another set of PDFs and Save.

Try this, and let us know if that helps.

Yeah exactly!

Earlier you were using the PDF Pack which might be causing restrictions. As now you are a subscriber of Acrobat Pro DC so you can try with it.

Hope you have downloaded the right application Acrobat DC. If not, then you may refer to Download Pro or Standard versions of Acrobat DC, 2017, XI, or X
