    • Open the etd.pdf file in Adobe Acrobat
    • Under the Document menu select Insert Pages
    • The following window should appear:

    • Select the file you want to insert and then click on the Select button. (Note: it is easier to insert the files in order, for example, the first file you insert should be the file that comes right after the etd.pdf file)
    • You should now see a window that looks like this:

    • Under Location select After if this file comes after the file you are inserting into or choose Before if this file goes before the file you are inserting into.
    • Under Page select the page where you want the file inserted. For example: if you want to insert a file after the last page of the etd.pdf file, and the etd.pdf file is 5 pages long, you would select After under Location and Page: 5 of 5 under Page.
    • Repeat the steps to insert as many files as needed.
    • Review the file to make sure that all of the files were inserted properly.
    • When you are finished, save the file as etd.pdf.
    • You should now have only one file (etd.pdf) to submit online.
