I do mine in Acrobat.

Can you give me a little bit explanation on how to do that?

Using Acrobat Standard or Pro (i.e., not Reader), you just take all the pdf files and combine them. "Document|Insert Pages".

So the first step is to create all the individual pages you need using whatever software you want, and then combine them. I use Word to make my cover, and I use Illustrator & Photoshop to do various graphics.

Ok thanks it seems to take a lot of process to complete the task.I think python is the only simple solution.

Yeah, I think Python would be easy to implement. See code example here: PDFDocument—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop
