Issue
If you combine files into a single PDF that exceeds 2 GB, Acrobat displays the file as a binder. An error message appears when saving this binder: "The document could not be saved. This file is too big for the current operation."
Environment
Windows
Cause
Acrobat is designed to have a 2GB limit for saving linearized PDF files.
Workaround
To bypass the error, disable linearization before saving the file.
