Exporting RAW + JPEG from a Collection

Hello... Need Help! I have a set (400+) NEF (raw) and JPEGs (edited) in a Lightroom collection. I want to export them together into high quality JPEGS. The reason I have both of them in a single collection is so I could re-order them in a particular sequence as they were shot on three different cameras (not time synced). I have re-ordered them within the collection, but I need to export them in the same sequence. When I try to export them, only the RAW files are getting exported. Would greatly appreciate any help.

    Did you check the option to treat jpegs as separate files? In other words: do you actually see the jpegs as separate images next to the raw files in the collection? If so, selecting them both and exporting them should create jpegs of both. Just change the sort order of the collection to capture date to get them side by side if needed. If you do not see them as separate files, then they are considered sidecar files and will not export.
