Combining Files: Feature Request re Default Order of Files

Post by bqxmprij »

I have to combine pdfs all the time at my job. Today, I had to combine about 15 files. Ideally, I want to combine files in tab order. To get the files in right tab order, I had to move some tabs around. Visually ordering tabs/files is (I think) intuitive.

But, when I used the combine functionality (File>New Document>Combine Files Into A Single PDF), the file order was the original tab order (i.e., before I rearranged the tabs). Given some of the weird file names, it was difficult to re-arrange the list of files to the correct order.

Ultimately, I think it would be very helpful if the default order of the files to be combined was in current tab order, not the order in which the files were opened before the tabs were re-arranged.

Thanks and Happy New Year!

Hi bqxmprij,

Thanks for the post and suggestion - I'll pass this along for consideration.

Cheers,
If posting files to this forum, you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded.
Thank you.
