Merge PDF: 3 free providers in check

You can combine PDF files on the Internet and also with free software. In this way, you can combine several PDFs into one file and easily send them by email. This function is not available in a PDF itself. In the following practical tip, we will show you how you can easily combine several PDFs into an entire document.

Merge PDF: This is how it works with a free online tool

The simplest option is completely without additional software: With the free SmallPDF web app, you can combine several PDFs into one file.

1. To do this, open the SmallPDF home page and select the "Merge PDF from" tile.
2. Now upload all PDF files that you would like to combine completely or in extracts.
3. The "File Mode" is automatically preset. If you want to join the files together, all you have to do is put the uploaded PDFs in the correct order.
4. If you only want to combine individual pages from the PDF files into one file, switch to page mode (see picture) and select the desired pages.
5. Finally click on "Merge PDF" and after a few seconds you will receive the merged PDF as a download.

Merge PDF files: This is how it works with free software

In order to be able to combine PDF files even without an internet connection, you should have the free tool PDF24 Creator installed on your computer.

1. First open the PDF24 Creator and load all the files that you would like to combine completely or in parts.
2. The PDF files are displayed in a preview page by page. You can move a single page or the entire file until you see the order you want in the preview.
3. To put the PDF pages together, click on the button with the two rings in the menu bar.
4. At the end you have to save your file using the diskette symbol.
