Put all the pdfs you wish to combine into one folder, get these files in the order you want them to print in (number them or something). Select them all double click to open in preview. You should see all the pages in descending order in the sidebar. Click on the second page down, scroll down to the final page and shift click (therefore selecting pages 2 to the end), scroll back up to the top page in the sidebar, now drag all those pages onto the first page (a plus sign with the number of pages you've grabbed come up as you do this). Now, IMPORTANT, go to the Previous arrow top left of the toolbar and click it enough times to get yourself back so the first page is in view. Hit save. This helps to open the file again with page one first and keep it all in order. Close the file. Now go back into your folder and you can bin all the pdfs that formed pages 2 to the end, keep just the first one which should now include all the other pages within it, in sequence. Another thing I do is to prepare all the other pages first in their single files (e.g. if they are upside down, need centering, etc,) before Group selection and amalgamation, otherwise some things are more difficult to accomplish when they are all in one file. Hope it works out for you. Cheers, Jonathan Hi combined MacOSX wisdom, I have a whole bunch of single-page files that I want to combine into one PDF. I had heard this was possible in Preview on Mac, and sure enough I can copy pages from one PDF to another document, but then I can't save the result! If I save as then it only saves the single page I was showing at the time, and if I try to print and then save a PDF, it only prints the page I was showing at the time.

Re: [Finale] mass copy
You are right, I have partial measures turned on... Thanks. Pierre. - Original Message - From: dhbailey I was going to reply that such behavior often is a result of your quantization settings or whether you have Partial Measures turned on or not, since that has seemed to have caused such behavior in the past. However, I just tried to recreate your problem (with WinFin2005a) and I can't get the program to do what you are saying it is doing on your machine.

Make sure you redraw afterwards, otherwise the slurs will still be wrong. Here is what I think happened: You probably by accident froze all stems up with the MassEdit tool. As far as I can see this can only happen by selecting all and selecting the appropriate command from the MassEdit menu. However, it is possible that there is a way to do this otherwise which I am not aware of. All should be well after doing the above. BTW, please send attachment personally, not via the list...
