I have a pdf several MB in size. I want to split this up, store the parts
on floppies then rejoin the parts on another pc.

I have tried an easy approach, using notepad, but the rejoined file does
not work in Acrobat, can someone tell me why?

This is what I did: With cut & paste I split the pdf into three parts in
notepad, saving each as a separate .txt file, being careful not to lose any
characters in the process.

I then carefully rejoined the parts into a new notepad window using copy &
paste again, and then saving as a .pdf. This shows to be the same size as
the original but, when opened Acrobat is unable to display most of the
document, and error messages keep popping up if I try to scroll through the
pages.

For such a simple procedure, the pdf becomes unusable! Does anyone know
why?

Searched the web for this situation but no luck.

Thanks for any help on this,
Kevin
