ice Shuffle PDFs takes two PDFs created from scanning a double-sided document and shuffles them into a single PDF. The first input PDF contains the document's odd pages (pages 1, 3, 5, 7, etc.). The second input PDF contains the document's even pages (pages 2, 4, 6, 8, etc.). ice Shuffle PDFs shuffles these PDF pages together the way you shuffle cards: it alternately takes one page from each PDF until no more pages are left. The resulting PDF restores the original reading order of the scanned document.

ice Shuffle PDFs assumes that the pages of the second PDF are in reverse order. This is because scanning double-sided pages usually leaves the even pages reversed. If you don't want ice Shuffle PDFs to do this, launch ice Shuffle PDFs and then choose Don't Reverse when asked. If you drag-and-drop PDFs onto ice Shuffle PDFs, or if you use Open With > ice Shuffle PDFs on the input PDFs, then the second input PDF will always be shuffled in reverse order.

Shuffling PDFs with many hundreds of pages can take a few minutes to complete. Upon success, ice Shuffle PDFs will create a new PDF — it never alters the input PDF files.

To begin shuffling PDFs, you have three options: 1) you can launch the application and step through its wizard, 2) you can drag-and-drop the input PDFs onto the application, or 3) you can select your input PDFs in Finder and then choose Open With > ice Shuffle PDFs from the contextual menu.

The built-in Help information explains all three of these methods in detail, and you can always contact customer support through our web site: www.ice199.com.
