I'm working with a policy committee that's transitioning from a centrally-managed document to distributed management (that is, they plan to split IT responsibilities off to a separate working group, plant services responsibilities to another, etc).


I've been asked to come up with a way to merge their documents together into one large work product. Is there any way to do this in SharePoint 2013? I'm skimming over some technical details they'd have to supply, because my research suggests that this isn't possible.


I have two 1-page documents and double-sided printer. I can print them separately but prefer to print them on two sides of one sheet. The documents have different formats and cannot be merged by their editor tools. Is there a technique to append one print page to another at printer level?


Edit 12 Nov 2015: I considered the mechanical alternative, where you print first surface, return the paper into the tray and print the second. But, I would like to avoid it because you need experimentation: you never know which side is printed first. This is aggravated by enterprise printers, which are located far away and used by other people as well. You can spoil their work if place you half-printed sheets at wrong side. I therefore ask for electronical merge/queuing.


PDFtk is open source. You can download a portable version of PDFtk where you can use it to merge PDFs into one document. This will allow you to perform the duplex printing. I think your best results will be when all documented you want to duplex are of the same dimensions.


You may get odd results with different dimensions (one side tabloid 11x17 and another side letter 8.5x11) depending on the PDF reader your use to print and how to printer decides to handle different page dimensions.


I had a vaguely related problem: I needed to fax a single page PDF of a semi-confidential nature to someone, along with an added cover page that I wanted to compose ahead of time in MS Word, aka not using the fax software cover page feature. I wanted to complete this task without printing hard copy, without buying commercial PDF editing software, and without resorting to online shareware/freeware tools that might possibly leak my PDF document.


The solution I used was to embed the PDF document as an object into the second page of my MS Word cover page document, as described in the Microsoft Office help article, Add a PDF to your Office file. In MS Word 2016 use:


An old question, but still relevant - I had the need. I've found a solution which works on the platform I use, and might suggest answers for other cases. In my case I print from a computer I control to a networked printer. The details: Windows 10/64; Brother laser printer; free Foxit PDF Reader v 9.7.2.29539 (the last version that supports a PDF printer available to other processes, not relevant here). The essential point is that Foxit Reader has an option to batch-print (not very obvious; I discovered it after years of use. Other PDF software may have similar facilities). So long as the documents to double-side are all PDF, and all print correctly with the same settings, batch-print them, making sure to set the printer properties to print double-sided.


on doing so it listed lost citations (mainly websites) that it couldnt find (sorry cant recall exact phrase) i had the option to ignore or cancel the merge. The citations were referred to by their authors name and a #number). I ignored all to proceed and he merge happened.

the references i ignored are now still visible in the text but with . they arent in the combined reference list and now not visible in the endnotes library


Im guessing i had entered them into the library insufficiently in the first place??

How can i make them visible again? and any tips on how to successfully merge the 2 docs to have one complete reference list?


Are they all the same ref type? Are you using the same style to format them in the original documents and the new document? Can you do a a screen shot of the temporary citation and a screen shot of the record for that citation in your library? What if you delete one of the temporary citations and insert it again? I still think it is something to do with the field in the temporary citation, and perhaps a mismatch with the record fields.


I am trying to merge 14 small-ish pdf's together and I keep getting the same message. "Could not organize." I tried merging only 5 together, 4 together, etc and I still get the same message. It is so frustrating!! What does this message mean? How can I fix it?


I've not seen that one before. Can you post a couple of the PDFs for us to try to merge? Maybe it's something about your install of Acrobat that is damaged, that could be fixed with Help -> Repair Installation. Or, maybe it's something wrong with the PDFs that can be fixed by producing them differently, or applying some kind of fix to the unmerged separate files.


I am having the same problem. I tried for hours yesterday and did not succeed. So I have been trying today to combine 2 files and it keeps giving me this message of "could not organize". It is very frustrating especially if some deadlines are to be met. What can I do?


Could you please confirm if you combine files in the Acrobat desktop application or via the Acrobat Online account? If you are using the desktop application, share the Acrobat and OS versions on the machine.


I am also having this issue with the same issue. I was combing documents just fine then all of the sudden I kept getting this error for all my pdfs in the online version of merge. Even when I try to combine just two it gives me the "could not organize" error after it gets about halfway through the combining process.


I've been having the same problem with the "could not organize" error. I finally got my documents to combine after editing the original Publisher file. I discovered that I had a text box off the edge of the document in the grey space. Once I removed the text box and resaved the document as a pdf and then combined the files everything worked correctly.


Solutions

Non-password-protected documents

During times of peak usage, it could take up to two hours to populate the Page Count column for a newly added PDF document. Follow these steps to force the page count to be populated immediately for any PDF file.


In GoFileRoom, Search for the PDF.

In the search results list, mark the checkbox for the applicable PDF. Right-click the document and choose Edit (if you're using the Document Explorer) or Edit Document (if you're using the classic search features).

After the PDF opens in Adobe Acrobat, choose Tools > Save back to GoFileRoom. You should now be able to successfully merge the document.

Password-protected documents

You cannot merge password-protected files in GoFileRoom. If you need to merge a password-protected file, you need to first remove the password protection for the file in Adobe Acrobat. Then you can force the page count to be populated using the same procedure as that for non-password-protected files, above.


here is what worked for me for same error. i opened the orignal pdf...selected 'Print' option saved it again as a "PDF" and different file name maybe suffix it to P. Now it saved the file with larger size. did same for rest of the 6 files and then used them to merge. That worked.


I had the exact same problem. I finally tried "Print to PDF" after steps 1-3, and that worked. This page needs to be updated with a proper final step: OS X: Combining PDF documents using Preview - Apple Support


I have FINALLY figured out how to solve this issue simply. When I scan, for example, 5 documents in and try combining them with the thumbnails process described herein, Preview will save as 5 separate documents instead of one single document consisting of all pages. I have been burned several times sending as email attachments and missing deadlines because only the first page was included. Out of frustration I was using an online .pdf merger, but that ***** for many reasons.


When you drag all the thumbnails together so you are viewing it as if it were a single document, bring up the "print" menu and instead of sending to printer, select "open as .pdf file in viewer." When it does it will convert to a single file, which you can then save. I hope I've explained this well, because this has had me incredibly frustrated over the last several months. Good luck.


Thanks Eric - I agree, no-one at Apple really cares about the users feedback nowadays (If they did, Final Cut X would never have been released in the way it was), but at least it allows us to vent our frustrations !


Well that just about sums it up nicely, following Eric's link ( ), Preview isn't even shown in the options - they clearly have decided it's not worthy of getting feedback from their (frustrated) customers. Unless anyone knows where \they've hidden it, I'll send feedback in the OSX option!


We've all been using most of them since their conception, and i would seem that since the passing of SJ, the developers are making life soooooo darned difficult! Time was that Apple was "THE" software to use because it was easy to use and easy to teach, I've been using Preview to create Multi-Page pdf's for as long as I can remember, simply by dragging other pdfs into the thumbnail section - always worked in the past - so why doesn't it work now?
