Can you combine 2 pages within same PDF into 1 long page?

Its sounds simple enough, but after reading pages of help notes, documentation and forum topics, I cant solve this:

On PC, I have a file created from a webpage, but both PDFMaker and Acrobat plugins create it as 2 seperate 8.5 x 11 pages and put it into 1 pdf file.

I'd just like it as one long page in my pdf?

Anyone know if its doable, and how so?

Hi --

Yes, you can do it. Choose Document > Crop Pages and in the Crop Pages dialog box, choose a long page size in the bottom left of the dialog box, or type in custom values.When you are back in the file, select the content you want to move using the TouchUp Object tool, delete it, and then paste it to the first page.

Thanks for the info.

I did manage to do it, but wow, what alot of work!

I had play around trying to figure out how long to make the page, then piece back graphics and text and align it to look like the newsletter it once was. Then I had to crop it again , and my file size seems to have doubled.

Anyone esle know if there's a simpler way?

Thanks
