Q. How do I combine my thesis with my certification page?

Combining Documents Using Adobe Acrobat:

1. Open Adobe Acrobat XI Pro
2. Under "Select a Task," click "Combine Files into PDF."
3. Either drag the files into the designated area or select "Add Files..." in the upper left corner, and select the necessary files (the certification form and your thesis).
4. Arrange the two files by dragging them into place, so that the certification form is placed first.
5. Click "Combine Files" in the bottom right corner.
6. Click "File" in the upper left corner, and select "Save As..."
7. Enter an appropriate file name and destination, and click "Save."

Alternatives to Adobe Acrobat

Chrome Browser: You can use the add in "PDF Mergy" available from the chrome web store to combine .pdf files.

Contact Josh Petrusa if you do not have access to a lab computer or are unable to find a program that allows merging of .pdf documents.
