Is there a good web app for manipulating .pdf files? [closed]

Question

I'm looking to merge a couple .pdf files for a one-off and don't want to install anything on my PC.

Anyone know of any web apps which will let me merge .pdf files?

Answer 1

You can use Google Docs to upload, modify and combine PDFs, then output it as a new PDF. Might cause some formatting issues if the PDF contents are really funky, but it's free and easy and you probably already have a Google account.

Answer 2

While not a webapp, you may be interested in PDFTK Builder Portable - a version of PDFTK Builder that can be run without installation on Windows.

Answer 3

Have a look at PDF Mergy. Allows to merge pdf files with a drag and drop interface. Requires a recent HTML5-capable web browser.

I know this comes a bit late, but maybe it helps anybody who happens to stumble across this.

Answer 4

PDF Rider is an open source project on Codeplex. This utility provides a GUI for the command-line program Pdftk.

PDFSAM (PDF Split and Merge) is another free, open source utility to split and merge pdf files.

I've tried both in the past & found PDF Rider to be faster than PDFSAM.
