Insert one DC tab into another

[davenadiraol]

Under Insert I only find the clipboard and select-a-file options, which is great when the clipboard has something useable on it or I have to find the file I need to insert.   But nearly all the time, I want to combine files that I already have open next to each other in tabs.   My inclination is to drag one tab to another and look for a box of options like "Insert:  1) before first page, 2) after last page, 3) before current page, 4) after current page, 5) cancel insert."    But alas, I'm not able to manage this.

Is it just me and no one would use that method way more often than the others?   Or perhaps I'm doing it wrong?!

Thanks very much for any ideas.

Hi Davenadiraol,

Sorry for the delay in response.

You may try adding 'combine files' and 'insert pages' tools under action wizard in Acrobat and see if that match the workflow.

For Acrobat DC, please follow below mention steps:

1- Click Tools > action wizard > new action.

2- Under pages > double-click insert pages to add insert page tool to the right-hand pane.

3- Click Go to > double-click combine files to add the tool to right-hand pane. You can change action sequence by clicking  up-down arrow shown beside the pane.

Feel free to update this discussion if you need any further help.

You can drag and drop files directly into the "Pages" panel for a file to insert the entire file. You can also drag pages out of the pages panel onto the Window File Explorer to create new files. And you can drag pages from one page panel into the page panel for another PDF to insert the pages.
