Add a PDF to every other page of an existing PDF

[jordanp58356498]

Hello,

      I have 2 PDFs that I am trying to merge with a exact order.

First PDF is about 1800 pages (call it PDF A), and the second is just one page (PDF B).

I would like to insert PDF B into every other page of PDF A

Example:

Page 1 of PDF A

PDF B

Page 2 of PDF A

PDF B

Page 3 of PDF A

PDF B

Etc....

I found the insert command in Acrobat Pro, but that just runs once. Wondering if there is a way to do that in bulk.

Thank you,

My ears are ringing... 🙂

You can do it using this tool I've developed: Custom-made Adobe Scripts: Acrobat -- Insert One PDF File Into Another Multiple Times

This did not work, it inserted every page of the other document after the first page.

TRY67 YOUR SCRIPT IS AWESOME!  We print on a paper that is tough to reload after printing the front.  We needed to insert the exact same back onto a bunch of 100+ page pdfs so that we could duplex print them.  The script worked like a charm and saved us hours.

With Acrobat Pro one can create an Action, Batch Process, to do this.

It is also possible to create a JavaScript action that can be run from the JavaScript console using JavaScript.
