combining documents
I have 110 documents that I would like to combine into ONE file so I can
print them as a book. The pages are all formatted exactly the same margins etc. I've tried 'insert' 'file' and selecting them all at once from the directory they reside, into a new file with the same 'page set up' but the result is not pretty. It does NOT put a page break between the imported pages. There must be another way...? right? |

Hello. Did you get an answer to this question? I just spent about an hour
looking for similar information. I am actually looking for a way to combine documents from multiple applications (i.e. Word, Excel, and PowerPoint) into one document that I can print. For example, if I have 10 pages in Word, then, 5 pages of Excel charts, I want to be able to print them all together using one large file, so, I can print the same each time. In a previous version of Word (XP), there used to be a program in the accessories that used to accomplish this task, but, I have not seen it since that version. Any help you received that you can share would be greatly appreciated. "jwb" wrote: I have 110 documents that I would like to combine into ONE file so I can print them as a book.

Sean, I have not yet heard anything. Short of bringing them in individually
and manually creating page breaks, for 110 documents, I don't have any other ideas yet. Keep an eye on this thread. JWB "Sean" wrote: Hello. Did you get an answer to this question?

Thanks!
Under another posting, somebody recommended that I try Adobe Acrabat (standard). I downloaded the 30 day trial (you can purchase for 199). It has the "binder" function, as well as many other functions that I find useful--like editing PDF documents, changing the order, and, creating multiple files into one large PDF file for printing/publishing. If you need a short term solution, I would say you should download and try it. After trying the program, I have decided that there are many great items within the program, and, I am going to purchase it when my trial is over. There are many items within the program that help with my "I wish I could do that..." items. Also, as the other post indicicates, if you have Office XP, you can use the binder feather within XP. I only have 03 and 07 disks. It was removed in the 03 version of Office, and, I do not see any information on the office website. Thanks again for your response!

I downloaded the 'Word' add on; "Boiler" and had no problems installing it.
When I use it however it only allows me to choose one file at a time.... I have 140 one page documents I want to combine into ONE document. How do I select all the files at ONCE to be included? Call me LAZY.... JWB " wrote: On Jul 29, 11:12 am, Sean wrote: Thanks! Under another posting, somebody recommended that I try Adobe Acrabat (standard).
