PDF-Dateien zusammenführen — kostenlos

Merging PDFs solves a near-universal document workflow problem: most formal submissions — job applications, legal filings, academic applications, insurance claims — require multiple documents, but the submission portal accepts only a single PDF.

For job applications, the most common use case is combining a resume, cover letter, and supporting certificates into one submission. Many job portals have a single "Resume/CV" upload field, and attaching multiple files isn't possible. A merged PDF also ensures a recruiter viewing your application sees everything in the order you intended, rather than having to open three separate attachments.

For legal submissions, courts and administrative tribunals typically require pleadings and exhibits to be filed as a single PDF document with sequential page numbering. This isn't just a convenience — it's a procedural requirement. Filing separately numbered documents as separate files can result in rejection by the court clerk.

A common misconception: merging two PDFs doesn't simply add their file sizes together. If PDF A is 2MB and PDF B is 3MB, the merged file might be 4–4.5MB rather than 5MB, because the merge process can share embedded fonts and other shared resources that exist in both files. However, if each PDF uses different fonts, the merged file will be close to the sum of both sizes.

Page order in merged PDFs is critical and worth double-checking before submitting. FileCurve lets you drag and reorder pages after merging. For job applications, typical order is: cover letter → resume → certificates → references. For legal filings, follow the court's specific indexing requirements.
