Merge PDF

Combine several PDFs into one file, in the order you want. You can mix in images and text files and move single pages around. Nothing is uploaded: the merging happens in your browser.

How to merge PDF files

  1. 1Drop your PDFs in, or click to choose them
  2. 2Drag the pages into the order you want
  3. 3Type a file name and save
  4. One PDF, every page in your order.

What happens to your files

  • Nothing is uploaded.Your PDFs are read and merged by your browser, on your own device.
  • Pages stay as they are.Text stays text, and nothing is recompressed.
  • Works offline.Once the tool has been opened, it needs no connection.

What you can do

  • Join any number of PDFs into one document.
  • Drag pages into a new order. Every PDF is split into its pages, so a page from one file can go between two pages of another.
  • Add images (JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, SVG and more) and text files as extra pages.
  • Rotate, duplicate or remove single pages before you save.
  • Choose page size, orientation and margin for pages made from images, and put up to nine images on one page.

Good to know

  • A password-protected PDF is skipped. Unlock it first, then add it again.
  • ToolRecipe sets no page or file limit. Very large files are limited only by the memory of your device.
  • The page has no upload, so there is nothing to delete afterwards.

Questions

Are my PDFs uploaded to a server?

No. The files are read and merged by your browser on your own device. They are never sent to us or anyone else.

Does merging lower the quality?

No. Pages from a PDF are copied unchanged. Only images you add can be made smaller, and only if you choose "Smaller file".

Can I combine a PDF with photos or scans?

Yes. Drop images in with your PDFs. Each image becomes a page, or several images share one page.

Can I change the order of single pages?

Yes. Every page shows as its own card. Drag a card to where the page should go, even between the pages of another file.
