Hello,

Is it possible to have an action that takes page 1 and 2 and duplicates them? I though I figured it out with "add pages" but it requires you to pick a secondary pdf.

example:

1 2 3 4 5 6

to

1 2 1 2 3 4 5 6

Don't think there is any way to do this with an action unless you duplicate the entire file first and then use the "add pages" to grab certain pages from one copy and paste into the other.

You could probably automate this using a workflow-tool like Switch.

Yeah I will be running through switch.

There is a way that you can do this with PitStop 13 update 1 using the new cut/copy/paste functionality.
Basically you would need to add blank pages where you need the new page content, and then copy the content from the original page and then paste it to the new location.

I did something similar in one of the PitStop webinars where I cut all the odd pages and pasted them onto the even pages on a new layer, the idea was to show the way that pages backed up.

Drop me a mail and some test files if you would like to try this.

Maybe quite late, but here's an actionlist which duplicates page 1

Thanks r.zegwaard.
Your post solved a huge problem I had!

If I run this action list on a pdf in PitStop 17 everything works just fine, but if I run it in PitStop Server 13 the page content is shifted upwards and to the right.

Any ideas as to what might cause this problem?

I upgraded the PitStop Server to PitStop Server 17 and then the action list works like it's supposed to do!!
