When merging PDFs saves the day.
Whether you are joining chapters, combining reports, or bundling application documents, one merged PDF is always easier to share.
Combining reports
Merge chapter exports, slide handouts, or section drafts into one complete document for distribution or review.
Joining book chapters
Authors and editors working in separate chapter files can combine them into one cohesive document for review or submission.
Contracts and agreements
Combine a contract body, appendices, and signature pages into one document for signing or archival.
Reordering pages
Drag file cards to set the final order. A numbered badge shows the merge sequence so you can confirm before saving.
Application packets
Combine a CV, cover letter, portfolio, and certificates into one file for job applications or grant submissions.
Invoices and receipts
Bundle multiple invoices into a single PDF for accounting, expense reports, or submission to a finance team.
How it works under the hood.
When you add files, PDF.js renders the first page of each file to a canvas and creates a thumbnail preview, entirely in your browser with no upload. For password-protected files, PDF.js decrypts the content locally using the password you provide, so you can see what you are adding before you merge.
When you click Merge, pdf-lib copies the raw page objects from each source PDF into a new output document. No page is re-rendered or re-compressed, so text stays selectable, images keep their original resolution, and fonts are preserved exactly as they appear in the originals.
The finished PDF is created as a Blob directly in your browser. Your files never leave your device at any point.
