When combining files into one PDF, the program automatically combines to a portfolio.

I recently combined to documents into a portfolio, which was fine. Now I want to combine two other documents into one document (I do this all the time) and the program defaults to a portfolio, despite what I select on the menu. How do I get it back to just combining the documents?

You can change it manually via the Options dialog of the Combine Files command:

Make sure that box is NOT ticked.

This will happen if the files can't be combined to a single PDF, for example if one of them is secured, digitally signed or was created using LiveCycle Designer.

Thank you! I thought that might be the case, so I tested it on two files that I created and saved to PDFs, and it still defaults to a portfolio.
