Looking for an Adobe Script to Combine Multiple Source Images into Multiple Output Images....

Report · Mar 31, 2016

Hello,

I have a large batch of single-image PDFs that I need to combine into multiple multi-image PDFs. I'm looking for a script that I can use in the Action Wizard to accomplish this. I would imagine that the source PDFs can be combined into the appropriate, larger PDFs, by utilizing their existing file names?

Here is a sample of the PDF's I am trying to combine:

PMT2015-01761-0001.pdf

PMT2015-01761-0002.pdf

PMT2015-01761-0003.pdf

PMT2015-01761-0004.pdf

PMT2015-02183-0001.pdf

PMT2015-02183-0002.pdf

PMT2015-02183-0003.pdf

PMT2015-02183-0004.pdf

PMT2015-03527-0001.pdf

PMT2015-03527-0002.pdf

PMT2015-03527-0003.pdf

PMT2015-03527-0004.pdf

My goal is to combine these 12 images, so that I end up with 3 multi-page PDFs. These new PDFs should look something like this:

PMT2015-01761.pdf

PMT2015-02183.pdf

PMT2015-03527.pdf

Does anyone have a script I can use to accomplish this? If initially having each set of images to be combined together in separate folders is helpful toward this end, I can implement that process before running any scripts.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Assuming the names of the files are not always the same you would need a combination of an Action and a script to achieve it.

The Action would collect the file names and the script would analyze those names and merge them accordingly.
