Why pdf2kit
Merge private documents without uploading them
Contracts, payslips and scans often should not sit on a stranger's server. pdf2kit joins your PDFs on your own computer, so nothing is uploaded and nothing is stored. There is no file size limit, and pdf2kit works offline once installed. It is free to use, with no account and no watermark on the result. Comparing options? See pdf2kit vs Smallpdf and pdf2kit vs iLovePDF.
Check it yourself
Proof that nothing is uploaded
You do not have to take our word for it. Open the pdf2kit workspace once and wait a few seconds, then turn off Wi-Fi. Add your PDFs, merge them and download the result: it still works, because the whole job runs on your device. For a closer look, open your browser's developer tools on the Network tab while you merge, and you will see that your files are never sent. How pdf2kit handles data is in the privacy policy.
FAQ
Merging PDFs: common questions
How many PDF files can I merge at once?
There is no fixed limit on the number of files or pages. The practical ceiling is your device's memory, so very large batches simply take a little longer.
Will merging reduce the quality of my pages?
No. Each page is copied into the new file as it is, so text stays crisp and selectable and images keep their resolution.
Can I merge PDFs and images into one file?
Yes. Add JPG or PNG images alongside your PDFs and each image becomes a page in the merged document.
Can I change the page order before I save?
Yes. Drag pages into any order, and rotate, delete or duplicate them first if you need to.
Is it safe to merge PDFs online?
Yes. The whole merge runs on your device, so your files never reach a server.
Are my files uploaded when I merge them?
No. The whole merge runs in the page on your device. Your files are never sent to a server.
