If I'm on page 27, I have to think, gee, that's page 266, etc. If I have to name the files backwards that's also time consuming, because it makes things even more confusing I go by the printed page numbers in documents to name the pdf file names after a scan when importing scanned material. That literally takes hours for a several hundred page book - I know, I've done it a couple of times and it's not very enjoyable. Is this a bug? Its a waste of time going through 300 pages and individually dragging and dropping them into the right place. It's very frustrating that Acrobat not only inserts pages backwards, but also does not have any sort command to re sort pages that were inserted out of order. aa.pdf, ab.pdf etc all with the same results. I have tried the 001, 002 003 naming scheme and also 1.pdf, 2.pdf, 3.pdf. Why does Acrobat do this?ĭoes this mean that every time I insert multiple pages into a document when creating an e-book, I have to name the pdf's backwards so that Acrobat can sort them backwards and then they will be in the correct order? I run the document>insert pages command to merge them all into one pdf file, and after the insert, Acrobat inserts the pages in descending order instead, with the last page in the original document inserted as page one in the new pdf file, and the first page in the document inserted as page 300. saved in a folder and named such so they can be inserted in ascending order into a new larger pdf.

I have 300 separate PDF files (from a scanned document) named 001.pdf, 002.pdf, 003.pdf, etc.
