Hi,

 

i hate Acrobat and I don't want to see it on my hackintosh. Thats why I made this little Automator script.

 

It works like this:

 

1. In finder, mark all .pdfs you want to merge

 

2. start my script

 

It is only 12kb in Size :blink: I hope you can use it.pdfmerger.zip

Wow, thank you, I'll try it as soon as I reinstall my OSX86 :P

This seems to be a very quick solution.

Thanks McSkywalker :whistle:

 

I figured out an even cooler way:

 

If you click on the script, you can save it as an PlugIn, and then give it a name and

select Finder.

 

It will then show up in the finder context-menu under automator.

 

So you just need to mark any .pdfs in finder and then

rightclick>automator>pdfmerge and voila.

 

No need to start automator again :P

I do have to deal with pdf's most of the time, because I'm a graphics designer.

 

It seems like a killer time saving utility to me, because with this one, I can show all the previous edits of a document in a single pdf to my customers without switching to freehand and tidying them in one file, then exporting them again to pdf format. I will of course use it also for archival purposes. :P

 

Thank you once again :whistle: You made my day!
