Adobe Acrobat Merge Documents into One PDF

Short instructions on how to merge multiple documents into one PDF.

Merge PDFs in Adobe Acrobat DC

  1. Open Adobe Acrobat DC.
  2. In the left-hand navigation pane, select Tools.
  3. Click Combine Files.
  4. Select Add Files and choose the PDFs you want to merge.
  5. Arrange the files in the desired order by dragging and dropping them.
  6. Click Combine.
  7. After Acrobat creates the merged PDF, select File > Save As.
  8. Choose a location, enter a file name, and click Save.

Alternative Method (from File Explorer)

  1. Select the PDF files you want to merge.
  2. Right-click one of the selected files.
  3. Choose Combine files in Acrobat (if your Acrobat installation provides this option).
  4. Verify the file order and click Combine.
  5. Save the merged PDF.

Notes

  • You can combine PDFs, images, and Microsoft Office files into a single PDF.
  • Drag and drop files to change their order before combining.
  • Password-protected PDFs may require you to enter the password before they can be merged.
  • Adobe Acrobat Standard or Pro is required; Acrobat Reader cannot combine PDFs.

This version should match the current Acrobat DC interface more closely.
