Hi everybody!!!
I would like to know if somebodycould tell me if it is possible to combine two PDFs files with Acrobat Professional on a single page. I have two letter size PDFs, but I need to print both on a 11in by 17in page of a newsletter we are wotking on. I can do this on photoshop without a problem but I would like to know if this is possible to do with Acrobat Reader.

Thanks advance!!!

If you are talking about combining two layouts on to a single/same page using Acrobat, then no it is not possible. You "might" be able to do this with some kind on imposition plugin

Also, Acrobat is not capable of printing spreads. You would need an imposition plugin to do that.

Is there a problem with generating the spread/PDF from within Photoshop?

Do you know where can I get an imposition plugin to do that ?

There is no problem at all to generate the spread/pdf from within photoshop, but I am the only one in the office that knows how to use photoshop and we are trying to make everybody to be able to do so with a single software.

If you are talking about an imposition plug in for Acrobat, you might want to look at "Imposer Pro" for Acrobat or "Quite Imposing."

http://www.quite.com

http://www.quark.com/products/xpress/xtensions/products/imposer/imposeracro.php

I am not sure if the one from Quark is Adobe friendly since they acquired ALAP who originally created the Imposer program.

I hope this helps.
