Guides for merging PDFs
How to merge PDF files into one
- Open the merger and select all the PDFs you want to combine. You can add more later with Add files.
- Each file appears as a numbered card with its first page. Drag the cards into the order you want, or use Sort files to order them by name or date.
- Click the rotate button on a card to turn that file 90°. Click the × to remove it.
- Click Merge PDF. The new file is named after your first file, for example report-merged.pdf.
How to merge only certain pages
- Add your files, then click All pages on the card of the file you want to trim.
- Click the thumbnails of the pages to keep, or type them, such as 1-3,7. Shift-click selects a whole run.
- Click Use these pages. The card now shows which pages are included, and the page count updates.
- Repeat for other files, then click Merge PDF. Your original files are not changed.
How to add bookmarks and a table of contents
- Under Bookmarks, choose One bookmark per file to make the merged PDF easy to navigate. Choose Keep all, grouped under each file if your files already have chapters.
- Under Table of contents, choose to build it from file names or from each document's title.
- If your first file is a cover page, tick First file is a cover page. The contents page then goes after it.
- Merge. In the result, click any line of the contents page to jump to that file.
How to merge PDFs for double-sided printing
- Under Pages, tick Double-sided printing.
- Raha adds a blank page after any file with an odd number of pages, so the next file always starts on the front of a new sheet.
- Tick Make all pages the same size if your files mix A4 and Letter or have different page sizes. Each page is scaled to match the first page.
- Tick Add file name to page footer to print each source file's name at the bottom of its pages.
How to merge PDFs on iPhone or Android
- Open this page in Safari or Chrome and tap Select PDF files. Choose files from the Files app, Google Drive, or your downloads.
- Use the arrow buttons on each card to move files earlier or later.
- Scroll down for the options, then tap Merge PDF. On iPhone, the share sheet opens so you can save the file to Files or send it.
Why use Raha

FAQ
Merge PDF questions, answered
How do I merge PDF files into one?
Select your PDFs with the upload box, drag the cards into the order you want, then click Merge PDF. The combined file downloads straight away.
Can I change the order of the files?
Yes. Drag the cards, use Sort files to order them by file name or by last-modified date, or use the arrow buttons on each card. The arrows are easiest on phones.
Can I merge only some pages from each PDF?
Yes. Click All pages on a file's card, then click thumbnails or type page numbers such as 1-3,7. Only those pages from that file go into the merged PDF.
How many PDFs can I merge at once?
There is no fixed limit on the number of files. On the free plan each file can be up to 50 MB and 200 pages, and you get 3 tasks per hour. The Pro plan removes the limits.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Merging runs in your web browser. Your PDFs are read and the merged file is created on your own device, so your documents are never sent to Raha Tools or anyone else.
Will merging reduce the quality of my PDFs?
No. Pages are copied exactly as they are: text stays sharp and selectable, and images keep their resolution. Only Make all pages the same size changes a page, by scaling it to fit.
Can I keep bookmarks or add a table of contents?
Yes. Keep all bookmarks, group them under each file, create one bookmark per file, or remove them. You can also add a contents page built from file names or document titles, with a clickable link for each file.
What happens to fillable form fields?
By default they stay fillable. If two files have a field with the same name, one is renamed so they don't overwrite each other. You can also flatten fields into the page or remove them.
Can I merge PDFs on my phone?
Yes. The merger works in Safari and Chrome on iPhone, iPad and Android with nothing to install. Use the arrow buttons on each card to reorder files.
Can I merge password-protected PDFs?
If a PDF needs a password to open, remove the password first with Unlock PDF, then merge it.
Ready to combine your PDFs?
Pick your files, put them in order and merge. It takes seconds, and nothing is uploaded.
