Try selecting in the reverse order... select 50pdf first, then shift-click
1.pdf
That's how it works for me when I'm selecting a bunch of music to play in
Windows Media Player.

Subject: inserting pdf pages in correct order
> Group,
>
> Is anybody aware of how to insert a multiple number of pdf pages in
> the correct sequential order?
>
> I'm using Acrobat Professional 6.0 on a Windows XP machine.
>
> I have approximately 50 pdf's of single pages all sequentially
> numbered (1.pdf, 2.pdf, 3pdf, etc).
>
> What I've done so far is the following:
>
> 1. Open the first pdf (1.pdf)
>
> 2. Then Document > Pages > Insert
>
> 3. Highlight the pages in the file list (all presented in sequential
> order)
>
> 4. Click "select" "After" page 1, then Enter.
>
> The pages are all inserted, but in reverse order.
>
> What to do? What to do?
