This can happen if there are hidden problems with the original files or the Acrobat installation. To fix this, try re-saving each source file using 'Save As' before combining. This refreshes their internal structure. If the problem continues, try adding files one by one. As a last resort, use the 'Help > Repair Installation' option in Acrobat to fix any software issues.
