Q: there is no way to save a PDF in preview anymore
What happened to this software?????????
I used to be able to drag pdf pages from one file to another and then save the PDF with multiple pages. This feature has apparently been removed since I upgraded to Mountain Lion. Preview and other preloaded software is the ONLY reason that I use Mac and not PC machines. If Preview is not restored to its previous level of functionality, I will be going back to PC's and I suggest that everyone else do the same. The changes made to OSX since Mountain Lion have been so bad and so poorly thought out. I cant even operate this machine any more, things like the "app store" are so offensive by their very nature that it angers me to even look at a Mac anymore.
I digress... right now I just need to know how to save a file and I hope someone reads this and wonders why they are so bad at creating software that someone would even have to ask this question........

Hey, there is still a way to this in lion and above(not tested). Just tried this in Lion:
- Merge the files as given in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4075
- Instead of 'Save As' (which is not there anymore), go to File -> Print or Command + P
- In the Print window/drop down/dialog, in the bottom left, you'll see PDF options, where you'll get the option to 'Save as PDF'
- Select that Save as PDF option and Save it, Done!
