I’m having a bad evening.
I’ve been trying to print several pages of an Excel document to a PDF file, so I can send it off. What it’s doing, however, is not printing them to one PDF, but seperate files.
Now, that’s not too bad, but each file has the same name, so only the most recent one is actually being left on the disk.
What I’ve had to do is print each one seperately, and combine them in Adobe Acrobat. What would have happened if I didn’t have Acrobat?
Fuck Microsoft.
It gets worse. When you try to add pages to an Adobe Acrobat document, it doesn’t seem to choose an order in any meaningful order.
Page 1, Page 4, Page 3, Page 5, Page 2.
It’s not that hard to imagine that a user might already have the filenames in the order they want them to appear, and perhaps take that into account?
5 minutes after the fact.
