PDF files are now a de facto standard and are often exchanged online via email or certified e-mail and, just as often, document scans are also carried out therectly in this format.
PDF stands for Portable Document Format (portable document format in our language); already from the name it is possible to deduce the reason for its success. Portability means the ability to open the file identically (without formatting problems and missing characters) on any platform on which a suitable client is available. Unfortunately, despite this great advantage, it's not so easy to ethet PDF files.
Today we will cover all the solutions to merge several PDF files together into one file.
