Interweave two pdfs of the same length into 1 pdf

Post by R.goldw »

I frequently need to interweave two pdfs into 1 pdf to check for differences. To be more specific I would like to take two pdfs and alternate pages, 1 from pdf A then 1 from pdf B and so on for all pages. Currently I am merging the two pdfs all of A then all of B and then manually moving the pages in the thumbnail section. I would love an option where I could select both pdfs and pdf xchange editor will alternate the pages for me in one document.

Is this a thing that already exists in this software?

Hello, R.goldw

While we do not have a re-order pages function built in, we offer javascript functions which can accomplish this. Unzip the attached Zip file, then follow the instructions in the text file to add a button to your toolbars within the Editor that can do this re-organizing.
