  2. Microsoft Print to PDF mixes up JPGs.

    Hi Anita,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    To understand the issue better, I suggest you to answer the below questions.

    • What happens when you select small bunch of images and try to print?
    • Is the issue specific to the Microsoft Print to PDF?
    I would suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps you.

    • Create a new folder and copy the images you want in PDF.
    • Sort the images as you want. (It always copies as per the sorted time/date)
    • Set the images in Order/Sequence as you want it to be set in PDF.
    • Select all and Print it to PDF.
    Keep us posted to help you better.

    Printing multiple JPGs as a single PDF - how to control sequence?

    I want to combine multiple JPGs into a single PDF, and am using the Microsoft Print To PDF function to do this. Despite selecting a sort order for the JPGs, the PDF always prints them out of order. For example, if the JPGs are sequenced A,B,C the PDF will print them in C,A,B order.
    Following a tip elsewhere I tried changing the properties of the Microsoft PDF printer to "start printing after last page is spooled", but it made no difference.
    How can I control the order in which the JPGs are printed to the PDF?
