Combine PDFs into one file

Scanned receipts, a signed contract and its annexes, chapters exported separately — sooner or later you need them as one PDF. This tool joins any number of PDF files into a single document, page for page, in exactly the order you set.

Everything happens inside your browser using the open-source pdf-lib engine. Your documents are read from your device and the merged file is written back to it, so contracts, bank statements and ID scans never pass through a server. There is no file-count limit, no watermark and nothing to install.

How to merge PDF files

  1. 1

    Add your PDFs

    Click Choose PDF files or drag them onto the page. You can add more at any time with Add more.

  2. 2

    Put them in order

    Drag a file up or down, or use the arrow buttons. The file at the top becomes the first pages of the merged PDF.

  3. 3

    Merge

    Press Merge PDFs. Pages are copied across exactly as they are — text stays selectable and images keep their quality.

  4. 4

    Download

    Save the combined file. The originals on your device are left untouched.

Key features

  • Unlimited files

    Merge two files or two hundred; the only limit is your device's memory.

  • Custom order

    Reorder by dragging or with the up/down arrows before you merge.

  • No quality loss

    Pages are copied, not re-rendered, so text, vector graphics and images stay exactly as they were.

  • Works with restricted PDFs

    Files that only block printing or copying are merged automatically. Password-protected files are flagged so you can unlock them first.

  • Private by design

    Nothing is uploaded — the whole merge runs on your phone or computer.

Common uses

  • Job applications: Send your CV, cover letter and certificates as one tidy attachment.
  • Contracts and annexes: Keep the main agreement and its schedules together in the right order.
  • Expense claims: Join a month of receipt scans into a single file for your finance team.
  • Study notes: Combine lecture slides exported chapter by chapter into one revision file.

Tips and good to know

  • To merge only part of a document, first use Extract PDF Pages to pull out the pages you need, then merge the result.
  • Bookmarks (the outline panel) from the original files aren't carried into the merged PDF; the pages themselves are copied exactly.
  • If a file is password-protected, remove the password with Unlock PDF and add it again.
  • Merged file too big to email? Run it through Compress PDF afterwards.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a limit on how many PDFs I can merge?

No. You can add as many files as you like. Very large batches (hundreds of pages of scans) simply take a little longer and need more memory on your device.

Will merging reduce the quality of my PDFs?

No. Pages are copied directly from the original files, so text remains sharp and selectable and images are not re-compressed.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. The merge runs entirely in your browser. You can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works.

Can I merge password-protected PDFs?

Files with an open password need to be unlocked first — use Unlock PDF with the password, then merge. Files that only restrict printing or copying are merged without any extra step.

Can I change the order of pages inside a file?

This tool orders whole files. To rearrange individual pages, split the document first or extract the pages you want in the order you need.
