Second picture disappears after merging layers

New Here ,
Apr 15, 2025 Apr 15, 2025

Hi All,

I'm trying to get 2 separate images together on one layer. I thought I could accomplish this by first creating 2 separate layers and then merging them into 1, but the second picture doesn't seem to make the transfer. When I click on the layer that should have both, I only see the original picture. 

 

In the below screenshot, I want the picture from the "3VBox" layer to be merged into the "4/3V" layer, so after selecting "3VBox" from the options on the left (bringing it to the middle) , I would click on "4/3V" on the right box and then select "OK". Once I do, the "3VBox" layer does disappear, as expected, but its picture is nowhere to be found on the "4/3V" layer. Am I doing something wrong in the below screenshot, or do I just not understand how merging works? Thanks!!

Hi Stevie38923324rffg,

 

Thank you for reaching out.

 

To understand the issue here, we need to know how you create the layers. Please share the complete steps you take.

Share the Acrobat and OS version numbers on the machine.

It would be helpful if you could share the screen recording showing all the steps you do.

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi

Hi Meenakshi,

I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro 2017. To create the layers, I select "Import as Layer" on the layer menu, select the picture file I want to use, then name the layer. I have multiple layers, but now that I want to merge 2 layers, I follow the steps outlined in my previous post to try and merge them, so that I get 2 pictures on one layer. Hope that helps! Thanks!
