Hello,
How to create a single A3 .pdf file with 2 A4 .pdf files?
(- With Pdfcreator I believe it's possible on Windows,
and / or
- With Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional (NOT Reader of course) on Mac OS X,

I can make a single pdf with multiple pages from different pdfs, but what I need is to change the format.
I don’t want 2 A4 pages following each other, but a single page in A3 format, created from these 2 A4 pdfs...

Could someone help me with precise explanations?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Configuration: Mac OS X or HP PC Win XP Media Center sp3

Good evening,

For Mac OS:

Open your PDFs, press Command-A to select all, then Command-C to copy

Open a blank document in a word processor. (TextEdit works just fine), set the print format of this document to A3

Paste the copied PDF document into this text document. (Command-V)
Do the same for the second PDF document.

Save the text document as a PDF. This can be done directly from TextEdit or Pages, or from the print dialog using the PDF button in other cases.

You will then have your PDF document in A3 including the 2 original pages

Have a nice evening
