How to merge Odd and Even pages into one document?

[SarnXero]

Say you scan a double sided document but only scan one side at a time. So you have all the Odd pages in one PDF and Evens in another. Is there a way to combine the files so it places the pages correctly?

Hello, SarnXero

Simply open the Javascript panel (Ctrl_J) and then paste the follwing into the window and click run:

Code: Select all

function interleavePages(oDoc)
{
 var numPages = oDoc.numPages;
 numPages = (numPages / 2) & ~1;
 if (numPages <= 1)
  return;
 for (var i = 0; i < numPages - 1; i++)
 {
  try
  {
   oDoc.movePage(numPages + i, i * 2);
  }
  catch ( e )
  {
   break;
  }
 }
}

interleavePages(this);

Hi,

Also remember the "Combine Even Odd Pages..."-JavaScript-tool that Mathew has written for this purpose.
