Merge PDF in Chrome
Merge PDF directly in Google Chrome with ContinuePDF — no extension to add and no separate program to launch. The tool is built on the same modern web standards Chrome is known for, so it loads fast and merges your PDF files using Chrome's optimized JavaScript and WebAssembly engine. It works in Chrome on Windows, macOS, Linux, Chromebook, and Android.

What you can do with Merge PDF
Merging combines several separate PDFs into one continuous document, in the exact page order you choose, without changing the content of any file.
Assemble a report
Combine a cover page, a written section, and exported charts or spreadsheets into a single deliverable to send or print as one file.
Join scanned pages
Scanners often save each page as its own PDF. Merge them back into one document so a contract or form reads in order.
Bundle an application
Put a resume, cover letter, certificates, and references into one PDF so a recruiter opens a single, tidy attachment.
Combine invoices or receipts
Group a month of invoices or expense receipts into one file for bookkeeping, submission, or archiving.
Why Merge PDF runs great in Chrome
Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine and its strong WebAssembly support are exactly what a browser-based PDF tool needs. ContinuePDF leans on both to merge your PDF files at near-native speed inside the tab — no extension required, because everything the tool needs is already part of the page.
Avoiding an extension matters for more than convenience. Extensions request permissions, can slow the browser down, and are one more thing to keep updated and trust. ContinuePDF asks for none of that: open the page in Chrome, merge your file locally, and download merged PDF. Your document is processed on your device and never uploaded.

Pro tip
Drag the files into the order you want before merging — the tool combines them top to bottom, so arranging first saves you from re-doing it. If you only need some pages from a file, split or delete pages first, then merge.
Frequently asked questions
Will merging change the quality of my PDFs?
No. Merging copies each page as-is into the new document, with no recompression or downsampling. Text stays sharp and searchable, images keep their resolution, and fonts, links, and bookmarks are preserved.
Can I choose the order pages appear in the merged file?
Yes. Arrange the files by dragging them before you merge — they are combined in the order shown, top to bottom. To reorder individual pages within a file, use the Organize or Split tools first.
Do I need a Chrome extension to merge PDFs?
No. Merge PDF works as a regular web page in Chrome — there is no extension to install. Just open the tool, add your PDF files, and download merged PDF.
Is Merge PDF fast in Chrome?
Yes. It uses Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine and WebAssembly to process your PDF files at near-native speed right in the tab, so most jobs finish in seconds.
Is ContinuePDF free to use?
Yes. ContinuePDF and all of its tools, including Merge PDF, are free with no signup required. Because documents are processed in your browser rather than on our servers, we can offer the full feature set at no cost.
