I am following the command to combine files, via the tutorial.  There is supposed to be a menu that pops up to take the next steps, but it does not appear.  I have a paid license.  Any feedback would be appreciated.

Combine Files ===> Add Files ===>  then I get stuck in a do-loop.  No option to go any further.   Thanks.

Be sure to tell us what operating system and version of Acrobat you're using.

The document in the screen shot, with the two PDF icons at the left, is what you get when you combine two files (into a portfolio, which is an option). So you don't want to combine, someone already has... try the add icon (first on the second row). Never used it but it might do the trick.


If - perhaps - you mean you want to take this single, combined document - with two parts - and combine them to a normal single PDF, you can't. In this case. You can't combine a signed file with anything else because it destroys the signature. That's why this special way of combining was invented.

Hi, @Fred275575672amp 

 

Can you please list the steps you are taking currently? Please identify which menus and what selections you are taking. 

That way, no one will have you repeat what currently is not working for you. 

thanks!
