I am creating multi-size pdf sewing patterns.
The pages are simple line drawings that I create in a CAD program.
I have been working in Illustrator and finally figured out how to create a file with several layers, bringing it into Reader - one page works great.
However, I have a 5 page document for a beginning project and I can't get the pages worked into layers individually and saved.
Am I working in the correct Adobe program to create these multi-page pdf files?
Or do I create them individually and then can they be grouped together another way?
Here's a simple image of a page.

So you want to save each layer as a separate page? I'm sure it's something that can be done with Illustrator, possibly with a script.
It can't be done with Reader, though, although Acrobat probably can do it.

I know it can't be done with Reader. What I'll be doing eventually is read by Reader.
I'm looking for a definitive answer so I don't have to work myself through trials of every Adobe program.
InDesign might be the next one!
Thank you for your answer.

If you can make perfect single page PDF files, with all layers correct, you can probably use Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Standard to combine them.

Thank you. I'll trial it and see.
