Duplicating Pages in PDF Documents with AutoPageX™ Plug-in
- Introduction
- The AutoPageX plug-in "Duplicate Pages" tool can be used to quickly add duplicate pages to a PDF document. Additional copies can be added after the original pages, or at the end of the document.
- In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to use this tool by adding page duplicates to a sample PDF document - the goal is to add a second version of each page, after the original. The second duplication method - adding copies to the end of the document - is also shown in step 5.
- Prerequisites
- You need a copy of Adobe® Acrobat® along with the AutoPageX™ plug-in installed on your computer in order to use this tutorial. Both are available as trial versions.
- Step 1 - Open the Tool
- Open the PDF document for processing in Acrobat, and select "Plug-Ins > AutoPagex Plug-in > Duplicate Pages..." to open the "Duplicate Pages" dialog.
- Step 2 - Select Duplication Method
- Optionally change the number of page copies to insert, then choose the duplication method. Here, we will use the "Carbon Copy" option to insert "1" copy of each page.
- Use "Page Range Duplication" to insert copies after existing pages (see step 5).
- Step 3 - Duplicate Pages
- Select the pages to be processed and press "OK" to proceed.
- Step 4 - Check the Results
- Check that the duplicate pages have been added correctly. Here, one copy of each page has been added, following an AABBCC format. Press the "Save" symbol or use "File > Save/As..." to save these changes.
- Step 5 - Duplicate a Page Range
- Select the "Page Range" option to insert copies of chosen pages at the end of the document. Here we will process "All pages..." - press "OK" to proceed.
- Check the results - here, a copy of each page has been added after the last page of the PDF (ABCABC).
