PDF,APPLICATION/PDF

Preview on macOS can reorder pages in a PDF, but merging multiple separate files is clunky and easy to get wrong. For a quick, reliable merge, a browser-based tool is simpler — especially on machines where you'd rather not install extra software.

Drag PDFs straight from Finder into the merge window, arrange them as needed, and download the combined document in seconds. Works seamlessly in Safari, Chrome, and Firefox on any recent version of macOS.
