Subject:acrobat question: one PDF from many .docs? From:Becca Price <becca_price -at- yahoo -dot- com> To:Techwr-l <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Thu, 4 May 2000 11:36:00 -0700 (PDT)
I have Acrobat 4.0, running under Windows NT and with
Word 98. I need to distill 6 Word documents into one
PDF file, and truly can't figure out how to do it and
keep my TOC page numbers and cross references active.
I've tried printing to a PRN file, concatinating the
files into one PS file and distilling on that, but I
lose my active toc.
If I have to, I'll merge all the files into one big
word doc, but I really don't want to do that; my
computer has a bad habit of corrupting the file when I
do.
Surely there's a way? but I can't even find mention of
it in the online help for Acrobat.

of our free will, and that share of glory which falls to
our lot." N. Machievelli, "The Prince" ch.26
