No re-upload neededThese tools accept .PDF - your file is handed over directly.
No. Everything runs in your browser - your file never leaves your device. How this is verifiable
Merging several PDFs into one document saves recipients from juggling attachments - e.g. cover letter plus CV plus references in a single file.
When you drop them, the PDFs are sorted automatically by name in alphabetical order - in the review tray you then reorder them freely, by dragging or with the arrow buttons. You can add more files, remove individual ones or edit the pages before merging.
When merging, the pages are taken over unchanged - nothing is re-rendered, so text, fonts and resolution stay exactly as in the original. This is ideal for bundling several monthly statements, chapters of a script, or the parts of a job application. Tip: with a consistent naming scheme using leading zeros like “01_cover”, “02_cv”, the automatic alphabetical pre-sort is correct even with two-digit numbers.
Merging happens locally in the browser with pdf-lib. Your documents are not uploaded and not sent to any server.
Smallpdf, iLovePDF and similar services are well known for this exact task - but there you upload your files to a remote server, and the free tier usually caps the file count or size per day. Here merging runs locally in the browser with pdf-lib: no file- or page-count limit, no account, no watermark - and because nothing is uploaded, it works on any device with a current browser, from Windows and macOS to Chromebooks and phones, even offline after the first load.

Limitations: Password-protected PDFs may fail; very large documents need correspondingly more memory. The bookmark tree of the source files is not carried over; fillable form fields, however, are preserved.
No, everything runs locally in the browser.
In the order shown in the review tray. On drop the files are pre-sorted alphabetically; after that you set the order yourself, by dragging or with the arrow buttons.
Yes. In the review tray you drag the files into the order you want or move them with the arrow buttons. On drop they are already pre-sorted alphabetically.
Page content, fonts and resolution are carried over exactly, because nothing is re-rendered while merging. Fillable form fields are preserved as well - if two files contain fields with the same name, the later one is renamed automatically (say "Name-2") so both stay independently fillable. Digital signatures inherently lose their validity when documents are merged, and the bookmark tree of the source files is not carried over - check the result briefly before deleting the originals.
Yes, completely free, no account and no limit on file or page count.
Yes. Because everything runs in the browser, merging works identically on Windows, macOS, Linux, Chromebook, iPhone and Android.
With Smallpdf and iLovePDF your PDFs leave the device and are merged on a remote server. Here everything stays local in the browser - your documents are never uploaded.
Yes, fully. Pages are taken over unchanged and never re-rendered - text, fonts, images and resolution stay exactly as in the source files.
Yes. In the preview area you can add more files, remove single ones and edit the pages before you merge - only the click on Merge creates the document.
