How to merge PDF files online
1. Upload your PDFs
Drag and drop multiple PDF files onto the area above. Files up to 1MB are supported on the free plan.
2. Arrange and confirm
Your files open combined in the editor. Drag pages into any order you want before downloading.
3. Download the merged file
Click download to save your combined PDF. No waiting, no email, no account required.
Combine PDFs without paid software
You have several PDFs that need to become one file: a set of invoices, the chapters of a report, or signed pages that belong together. Joining them should not require a paid desktop app.
PainlessPDF merges your files in the browser. Combine scanned pages into a single document, join a cover letter and resume, or assemble a contract from separately signed sections.
Reorder pages before you download
Merged files open in the editor as one document, so you can drag pages into the right order, remove anything you don't need, and preview the result before saving.
Free to merge, with no software to install
Combining PDFs shouldn't mean buying a desktop app or signing up for anything. PainlessPDF runs in your browser on Windows, Mac, Linux, and Chromebook, so you can merge files from almost any computer. Your PDFs are uploaded over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection, combined, and the finished document downloads with no account and no watermark.
