PDF Combine Review

"I manage volunteers who do placements all over the world. I work with volunteers and host partners. I often receive PDF files from colleagues or partners and it's easier for them to send me volunteer's files as one PDF. However I then need to separate each volunteers' paperwork into their own files and folders. In the past I had been printing out that one PDF (which had multiple people's documents) and then scanning each page separately. Of course that's massively time consuming. Besides, you lose the quality of the document (which is important as I am using these files for Immigration applications).

I also use your PDF combine which I like too. I may need to combine someone's applications and supporting documents. It's not so easy to do this. I also really like that I can order the pages of the PDF when selecting multiple PDFs from a folder on my computer."

How To

1. Download and install PDF Combine. The free evaluation copy is valid for 30 days, which is enough for your to test.
2. Select the folder with the PDF files in the left folder tree.
3. Check the files that you want to combine in the middle panel. Drag and drop them to put documents in the right order. Note that you can also save a list of files that you combine and recover it later. It work fine when you want to upload files from different folders.
4. Press Combine to PDF button.
5. The wizard has several inlays for your to make the settings. Some are necessary (i.e. the destination folder), others are optional (you may not want to add page numbers). Click through each step to make sure you are not missing anything.
6. When you are done, press Start button. Note that PDF Combine does not remove your source files unless you make a special setting before you press Start button. PDF Combine will merge the files into a single document and show you the destination folder as well as the log file. The final window will show you how many PDFs were processed and if there were any errors. If the program encounters any problems, it will add a note about that to the log file. The destination folder will be opened in File Explorer by default.
