When combining a lot of files (word, ppx, pdf, etc) into 1 pdf file, after every seperate file from te list is converted the Acrobat windows becomes te active window. This is pretty annoying when multitasking. How can i stop this behaviour and make Acrobat perform this task in the background??

This is on Windows 7 64bit

That has nothing to do with it. Acrobat is NOT meant to be used as a background service.

AFAIK, Adobe doesn't offer any tool that will do that, except maybe some web-based services, like the PDF Pack.

I'm still facing this stupid issue in 2024. Acrobat grabs focus each time it adds a file. This is just plain dumb. I often have to combine 100+ jpg files into a PDF and it just steals the system, locking me out of my computer for several minutes.
