Key takeaway
Merging PDFs concatenates pages into one file for sharing or printing.
Browser-local merge keeps drafts on your device during basic jobs.
What it means
Order matters; thumbnails help confirm sequence.
Bookmarks/forms may not always survive every merge path — spot-check.
Page/file caps exist for browser memory.
When you would use it
Combining signed pages, decks, invoices, handouts.
How to use the tool
Use the matching TCB Tools page and work top to bottom:
- Open PDF Merger.
- Add files in order.
- Reorder if needed.
- Merge and download.
- Open the result once before sending.
No account is required. Results update as you type.
How the process works + example
Example: three 2-page PDFs → one 6-page PDF.
If a file is scanned images, size can balloon — compress afterward if needed.
How to read the result
Verify every page landed.
Password-protected inputs may block merge until unlocked.
Local limits apply.
Common mistakes
- Wrong order. Check thumbs.
- Merging huge scans without compress. Compress.
- Assuming forms still work. Test.
- Uploading confidential PDFs casually. Prefer local.
