Objective and when to use it
Merge PDFs when a submission, archive or review needs one predictable document. Gather the source files and decide the final sequence before starting.
Recommended flow
- Rename files with a clear order.
- Check page orientation and remove unwanted duplicates.
- Combine the files, then inspect the first, middle and last pages.
- Save a descriptive copy and keep originals unchanged.
Care points
Check links, forms, bookmarks, page numbers and confidential pages after merging. For sensitive documents, prefer a workflow that matches your privacy policy.
Checklist
- Correct order confirmed
- All pages present and readable
- Metadata and file name reviewed
- Final PDF opened on the target device
