Adobe Acrobat Pro DC crashes when I combine PDF's

New Here ,
Jun 17, 2015 Jun 17, 2015

I recently installed Adobe Acrobat Pro DC on my computer and every time I try to combine PDF's it says that Adobe has stopped working and crashes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, I have done all windows updates, I ran the Adobe Acrobat cleanup tool, and all of the Adobe updates are up to date. This issue is extremely annoying and it really hinders my work, as I constantly need to combine PDF's (sometimes multiple thousands of pages). This has never been a problem in the past until about 2 weeks ago. I appreciate any and all help!

Workaround:

My document was 122 pages in .pdf format

I exported the crashing pdf document to MS Word within Acrobat Pro DC.

Exported .doc launched in Word for Mac 2016

Saved exported .doc to pdf in Word or Mac 2016

Opened pdf in Acrobat Pro DC.

Added blank page without the document / application crashing.

  1. From Microsoft Word go to File>Options>Addins>Com Add-Ins>Go
  2. Fully remove and readd the Adobe PDFMaker addin from this location (If you just redirect the addin without fully removing may still have issues):

         C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat DC\PDFMaker\Office then select “PDFMofficeAddin.dll”

    3. Hit “Ok” twice to make sure the addin location saves.

I tried this method, but after removing Adobe PDF addin, Word kept saying that “PDFMofficeAddin.dll” wasn't a valid addin file. I had to unistall and reinstall Office and Acrobat to get it fixed.

Please check the length of file name of documents to be combined. Just fixed mine, there's a need to reduce the length of the file name.
