Looking to create a Custom action to combine pdf files for a prodution enviroment.

Under the 

Action Wizard

Create custom Action 

Under > More tools. I do not see "Combine pdfs"

I am in an enterprise environment so we are using 2022.002.20191

There isn't a command there that will do it automatically. It can be done using a combination of an Action and a script, though.

I created this (paid-for) tool, for example, that will do that:

Maybe there should be, but there isn't. You can ask for it to be added here:
