How to Merge, Split, and Compress PDFs Online for Free

Merging Multiple PDFs Into One

Combining PDFs is one of the most common tasks. Whether you're submitting multiple documents to a government office, combining chapters of a report, or attaching several receipts into one file, merging PDFs is simple:

1. Upload the PDF files you want to combine
2. Reorder them by dragging if needed
3. Click Merge
4. Download the combined file

With a tool like the Toolzie PDF Merger, everything happens in your browser — nothing is uploaded to external servers.

Splitting a PDF Into Separate Files

Sometimes you only need certain pages from a large PDF, or you need to send different sections to different people. PDF splitting lets you:

• Extract specific pages by number (e.g., pages 3–7)
• Split every page into its own file
• Remove unwanted pages from a document

This is particularly useful for large government forms, multi-section reports, and scanned documents.

Adding Page Numbers to a PDF

If you've ever received a PDF that has no page numbers — making it hard to reference in conversation or legal documents — you can add them yourself. A good PDF page numbering tool lets you choose position (top/bottom, left/centre/right), starting number, and font size.

Rotating PDF Pages

Scanned documents often come out sideways or upside down. Rather than asking the sender to rescan, you can rotate individual pages or all pages at once — in 90° increments — and save the corrected file.

Adding a Watermark to a PDF

Watermarks are useful for:

• Marking documents as DRAFT or CONFIDENTIAL
• Adding your business name to invoices and proposals
• Protecting intellectual property

You can add text watermarks (any text, any colour, any opacity) directly in your browser — no software needed.

Converting Images to PDF

Have a stack of JPG photos from your phone that need to go into a single PDF document? An image-to-PDF converter lets you upload multiple images and combine them into one ordered PDF. The reverse (PDF to image) is also possible — useful for extracting individual pages as PNG or JPG.
