About this tool
Scanners and offices love sending documents one PDF at a time, but portals usually want the opposite: one combined file. Merge PDF stitches several PDFs together into a single document, page after page, in exactly the order you select the files — degree first, then transcript, then CNIC, for example. It copies the original pages rather than re-photographing them, so text, stamps and signatures stay at their original quality and the merged file remains a proper text PDF where the originals were. And because the merging is done by the pdf-lib library running in your own browser, confidential bundles like bank statements or medical reports are never uploaded to any server.
How to use it
- Select two or more PDF files, in the order they should appear in the final document.
- Double-check the order before merging — the first file's pages come first.
- Press 'Merge PDFs' and wait while the pages are copied; larger bundles take a few seconds.
- Download 'merged.pdf', open it, and scroll through to confirm the order and completeness before you submit it.
Where it is used
- Students merging separate certificate PDFs into the single file an admission portal demands.
- Employees combining monthly statements, invoices or reports into one file for email.
- Applicants assembling a complete dossier — CV, degrees, CNIC and experience letters — as one upload.
- Anyone whose scanner produced one PDF per page and who needs a single document back.
Tips for a better result
If the merged file is too big for a portal, the usual cause is one heavy scanned PDF inside it; there is no honest way to shrink a PDF without re-encoding it, so ask the scanner for a lighter scan or split the submission if the portal allows two files. Encrypted or password-protected PDFs cannot be merged until the password protection is removed by their owner. Finally, keep the individual originals — a merged file is a submission copy, not a replacement for your records.
