Dynamically assemble a combined PDF with table of contents from a group of individual files?

Say I have 10 individual PDFs that for whatever reason I need to supply some combination of the 10 individual docs to each person on an as-needed basis.  For example:

 

Person A needs docs 1,2,8,6,7

Person B needs docs 4,6,9,1

 

I'd also like to generate a table of contents for each packet.  Is there a way to do this in Acrobat?

 

Or alternatively, could I make one master-combined PDF that I could supress individual sections to issue just the proper docs to each person?

This can be done using a set of custom-made scripts. I've developed individual (paid-for) tools that do the various parts of your job (combine files from a list: https://www.try67.com/tool/acrobat-combine-files-to-pdf-from-a-list, create a clickable TOC from bookmarks: https://www.try67.com/tool/acrobat-create-a-table-of-contents-toc-in-a-pdf-file-from-bookmarks), so it shouldn't be too difficult to combine them all to a single tool that will do everything in one go.

If you're interested in purchasing something like that feel free to contact me privately via [try6767 at gmail.com].

If the individaul PDFs have bookmarks already, you should be in pretty good shape when combining these files into a single PDF.  The documents will be stratified in the bookmarks panel, with the original bookmarks serving as a Table of Contents of sorts.

I hope this is helpful.

My best,
