How to import several PDFs using FlippingBook Online?

Product: FlippingBook Online

Sometimes you have several separate PDF files on you instead of a combined PDF. Unfortunately, you can only import a single file in FlippingBook Online.

There are different ways to merge your PDFs into a single file depending on the device you use. To find the guidelines for your device, please, open one of the sections below:

 

How to merge your PDFs online with the Adobe official toolkit?

As an official PDF provider, Adobe has a few tools of its own. One of them allows you to merge several files together online. It can be used on both Windows and Macs. Here's how to use it:

  1. Open the tool on Adobe's official website: https://www.adobe.com/uk/acrobat/online/merge-pdf.html
  2. Click the Select Files button.
  3. Select the PDFs from your computer by pressing and holding the Ctrl key or ⌘Command on your keyboard and press Open.
  4. Click the Merge button in the upper right corner of the menu.
  5. Download the merged file by pressing the Download button.

One thing to keep in mind here is that Adobe only allows you to download one merged file this way. After that, they will offer you to register an account with them first. The good news is that the account is absolutely free, and gives you access to the rest of the tools Adobe has in store. Those include the options to split, reorganize and edit PDFs.

However, if you'd like to avoid setting up another account, feel free to take a look at other online services we mention in the article.
