I have 7 adobe illustrator files - I want to create 1 pdf file with all 7 pages.
The pdf file will be e-mailed to people and placed on a website for people
to download.
If anyone can explain to me how to do create this file- it would be really helpful.

Thanks

Place the Illustrator pages into a suitable page make-up application,
such as InDesign, then make the PDF from there.

You could also join the pages in Acrobat, but that would make an
unnecessarily large PDF file. For web use, I recommend NOT using
export from Illustrator or InDesign.

Thanks Aandi:

I tried both ways.
Adobe Acrobat created a file that was 751 MB- It was to large to mail out.
Adobe indesign created a file that was 11.7 MB- needless to say that is the one I will be using.

How would you go about creating a pdf to be downloaded from the web?

In both cases, which options did you use? The compression options in
Acrobat or InDesign can easily change the file size 100-fold.
