mdzPdfMerge

When you need to combine several PDF files into a single document, you need to resort to a dedicated software solution, such as mdzPdfMerge.

The main window of this application is as straightforward as they come, making it very easy even for those without any technical skills to take advantage of its functions.

At this point, you only need to add the source files, choose the location for the output document and you are done, no questions asked, you get the file that resulted from joining the source PDFs.

However, even if it might be easier for novices, you cannot drag and drop the source files onto the main window, nor can you add multiple files in one go. Instead, you need to manually browse to the location of each PDF.

When it comes to personalizing the output PDF, the only action supported by mdzPdfMerge is changing the order of the files (you can move them up or down in the list until you are pleased with their position).

Other than that, there are no other actions you could perform. You cannot adjust the page range, so you are stuck with joining the entire source documents, even if you are only interested in some of their pages.

Also, there is no way to preview the resulting document while still tampering with the source file order - you need to wait until the merging is complete, then open the PDF file using its associated viewing application.

In a nutshell, mdzPdfMerge is a basic utility that helps you quickly combine your PDF files in a single document. Nonetheless, the customization options are pretty scarce, so you do not get too much control over how the generated PDF will look like, which is a serious drawback, even for beginners.
