Before you start

You can merge as many PDF files as you like into one document. You can also choose to include only some pages of each source file, and you can merge password-protected PDFs as long as you know their password.

Tip: merging is done locally, so it's fast and private — even for large files.

Step-by-step: merge PDFs

  1. Download and install the program

    Get the free version from the Download page and run the installer. It takes under a minute.

  2. Open the Merge tab and add your files

    Launch the program and click the Merge tab. Click “Add file” to browse for your PDFs, or simply drag and drop several files into the window.

  3. Arrange the files in the right order

    Once your files are listed, use the up/down arrows on the right to set the order they will appear in the final PDF.

    • Pages — click to choose a page range; the default is all pages.
    • View — click the icon to preview that PDF.
    • Delete — click the icon to remove a file from the list.

  4. Choose the output location and file name

    Pick the folder where the merged PDF should be saved. A file name is generated automatically (from the current date and time) and you can edit it.

Merging only selected pages

If you only want part of a PDF, use the Pages column before merging. For example, to take only pages 2, 5, 6, 7 and 9 from a 10-page PDF, enter the page range 2, 5-7, 9. Only those pages are merged into the output.

Merging password-protected PDFs

You can merge encrypted PDFs by entering their open password when prompted. You can also set an open password on the merged output so only people with the password can open it (Pro feature).
