I am afraud I simply do not understand what you are saying - a
single file of all PDFS glued end to end so to speak?

I very much doubt it.

And what has Acrobat got to do with it?

It's only one of many PDF readers

Bed wrongside issue?
W7 offers a *downloads* file. XP had a similar beast but did not (to
my recollection) save PDFs on a permanent basis.


"W7 offers a downloads file"?

What does that MEAN?

Tim has pointed up my error. I should have said folder.
You must allow for my limited expertise;-)

No where on the internet is such a beast mentioned except here.

I repeat, what are you talking about?

It would be impossible to make one file out of all downloads - well not
impossible, I suppose you could create a zip archive - but to what
purpose?


I want to avoid permanently storing every instruction
manual/catalogue I ever look at!


Well delete the ****ers then

I'd prefer to not save them in the first place. Doesn't seem too
unreasonable.

Firefox at least has a user definable 'downloads' directory.

And is your browser set to view PDFS *in the browser* or do you use an
external program like acrobat?


I use Acrobat.
