Step # 1 – Starting the “Combine Files into PDF” task

Step # 2 – Select the files to combine
This window is titled “Combine Files”. Using the controls in this window, select files you wish to merge. Drag and drop the files into this window from the file system. View the files as a list and not as thumbnails by clicking on the “Switch to List View” button found near the top on the right hand side of the window. This allows you to see the order in which your files will be combined. Acrobat will start with the files at the top of this list and add files further down to the end of your combined document. You can change this order by dragging the files up and down this list into the required order.
