merge pages one by one from 2 files

I have two PDFs with the same number of pages. One is original, and the other is translated one.

How can I merge these 2 files into one, with organizing pages one by one?

ex. p1 : original page (p1 in 1st file), p2 : translated page of 1st original page (p1 in 2nd file),

p3 : original page (p2 in 1st file), p4 : translated page of 2nd original page (p2 in 2nd file),

and so on.

Hi there

Hope you are doing well and thanks for reaching out and sharing your concern.

As described, you want to merge the two PDF files with alternate pages from both files. Please try the steps given below and see if that helps

Open Adobe Acrobat Pro.
Go to "Tools" > "Organize Pages".
Open both the Original and Translated PDFs in Acrobat.
In the Organize Pages view, you'll see page thumbnails.
Now you need to manually drag and drop pages from each file in alternating order:

Page 1 from File A (original)

Page 1 from File B (translated)

Page 2 from File A

Page 2 from File B...and so on.

Thanks Amal for your kind guide.

By the way the number of pages of each file is about 300. So I can't use a basic way to organize thumbnails of two files.

Could you make know whether other ways or tools even by script as well? Thank you again.
