There are no special system requirements for online PDF merging
The nice thing about the online file merge app is that there are no special system requirements. The application works under all current browsers and operating systems like Windows, Linux, Mac, Android or iPhone.
The quality is maintained during assembly
You don't have to worry about the quality of your documents. Merging pages does not affect the quality of the page content of your PDF. The online tool combines the pages of the PDFs so that the quality of the PDFs is preserved.
Combine PDFs offline with the PDF24 Creator
Not everyone wants to work online and send their documents to the Internet. We can understand that and therefore we develop the PDF24 Creator, with which you can work offline. With the PDF24 Creator, merging files is also very easy.
How to connect PDFs with the PDF24 Creator
- Install the PDF24 Creator and open the Creator via the Desktop-Icon
- Now drag files into the right half of the window to load them. You can use all files that the PDF24 Creator can convert to PDF on your system. A conversion is performed automatically if a file is not a PDF.
- You can now create an empty file using the corresponding icon in the toolbar, into which you then insert the individual pages.
- Now grab pages in the documents with the mouse and drag them into the empty document. Do this with all pages that should be present in the new file.
- Once your compilation is ready, you can save your new file as a PDF file.
Tip: You can also merge entire files with the PDF24 Creator. Simply click on the Join icon in the toolbar and PDF24 will connect the files in the list to one file and show you the new file, which you can then save.
Merge PDFs using a zipper like method
Combining PDFs with a zipper method is useful in a variety of situations. The procedure works according to the following scheme:
- Append all first pages
- Append all second pages
- Append all third pages
- etc.
Those who want to merge scanned files will love this new feature in PDF24 Creator, because here the front and back sides are in different files. To make a PDF out of these two files, you have to use the zipper method. With the second document, however, you must first reverse the page order. In the context menu of a file there is a suitable function to do this before.
How to merge PDFs using the zipper method:
- Load the document with the front pages and the document with the back pages into the Creator.
- Invert the page order of the document with the backs if necessary. To do this, open the context menu of the file and click on the corresponding menu item.
- Now click on the zipper merge icon in the toolbar.
- Save the PDF file you have merged in this way.
Summary
PDF24 makes it easy to merge PDF files. With PDF24's Online PDF Tools, you can connect your PDFs with just a few clicks. This easy way to merge PDF files makes this tool very attractive.
The offline software in the form of the PDF24 Creator does not have to hide. With this tool you can also create your PDFs quickly and easily. Those who do not want to send their files to a web service, e.g. because security concerns exist or because the company does not allow this, can use the PDF24 Creator without hesitation and merge PDF files offline.
