Publish set as single PDF File?

[Gus]

I have small drawing sets (10 pages). When I publish them to PDF's each sheet is it's own separate PDF making it difficult to see the whole set at once when viewing it will Acrobat Reader. Is it possible to publish the drawing set as one PDF with many pages instead? It would still only be about a 5,000kb document, which is totally manageable for emailing back and forth to clients etc.

You can use the merge to pdf option.

FYI
You won't see the option... unless you have the "upper most" folder in the hierarchy selected.

You can actually merge any number of folders.
But you have to un-merge the upper folder if you want to merge sub-folders.
Merging a parent folder will automatically un-merge all the sub folders so you don't need to turn them off yourself.

Each merge will produce one PDF file with the name of that folder as the file name.
So if you want different file names just change the name of the folder.
i.e. add a new date or a revision number when you publish if you want a history of prints otherwise the original file will be replaced every time you publish.

Just select the "24 x 36 | CD" folder and uncheck the merge box.
Then you can merge any of the sub-folders.

Oh... now I get it.
Thanks Barry. Great tip about changing the folder names too.
And I never paid much attention to the icons. They change to show a folder's content is merged.
