PDF Toolkit
Merge multiple PDFs or extract specific page ranges — all in your browser.
Why use this tool
01A two-in-one PDF utility: switch between Merge mode to combine files, or Extract mode to pull out specific page ranges. No uploads — runs entirely in your browser.
PDF Toolkit gives you two essential PDF operations in a single tool: merge files or extract pages, all without uploading anything.
Switch to Merge mode to combine multiple PDFs in any order. Switch to Extract mode to pull specific pages from a single PDF using range notation like 1-3, 5, 7-9.

Tips & Tricks
- 01Files never leave your device
All processing happens in your browser. Safe for confidential documents, contracts, and medical records.
- 02Use range notation for extract
Ranges like '1-3, 5, 8-10' let you skip pages. Leaving the field blank extracts all pages.
- 03Compress after merging
Merged PDFs can be large. Run the output through the PDF Compress tool to reduce file size before sending.
FAQ
04Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. All processing runs locally in your browser. Your files are never sent anywhere.
What page range format does Extract mode accept?
Use 1-based page numbers separated by commas. Examples: '1-3' extracts pages 1 to 3; '1-3, 5, 7-9' extracts those specific ranges. Leave the field blank to keep all pages.
Is there a limit on the number of files I can merge?
No hard limit. The practical ceiling depends on your browser's memory. Merging in batches of 10–20 files at a time is recommended for very large sets.
Will merging change the quality of images or text in my PDFs?
No. Pages are combined without re-encoding. All fonts, images, and formatting are preserved exactly.
What's the difference between PDF Toolkit and the dedicated Merge PDFs tool?
PDF Toolkit combines merge and extract in one interface. If you only need to merge, the dedicated Merge PDFs tool has thumbnail previews and a more polished merge workflow.
