About Merge PDF — Free Online Tool

Merge PDF joins several PDFs end to end, in the order you arrange them, and returns one file. It takes up to 25 documents at 100 MB each, which covers the ordinary jobs: a year of statements into one attachment, a contract that arrived in three parts, or a scan whose front and back came out as separate files.

Each input's page tree is appended into a single document catalogue and the cross-reference table is rebuilt around the result. Page content streams are copied across rather than re-encoded, so text stays selectable, vector artwork stays sharp, and the merged file is exactly as crisp as the originals — merging is not a quality decision.

The merge happens in the page you are reading. Nothing is uploaded, so a signed contract or a bank statement never leaves the machine it is on, and there is no copy on a server to delete afterwards.

Putting bank statements together for a visa or loan application, combining an ID scan with its reverse side into one attachment, reassembling a report whose chapters were written separately, and collecting a month of invoices into a single file for an accountant.
