Privacy explanation (client-side processing)
All merge operations run on your device with in-browser code. PDFHarbor does not send your document pages to a merge API or storage backend.
FAQ
Does Merge PDF upload my files to a server?
No. The merge process runs locally in your browser, so your PDF files stay on your device.
Can I change the order before merging?
Yes. Use the move controls in the file list to set the final order, then merge.
Will merged PDFs lose quality?
Page visuals are typically preserved because pages are copied into a new PDF. File size may still change based on document structure.
Can I merge password-protected PDFs?
Usually no. Encrypted or permission-locked PDFs may fail unless you unlock them first.
Is there a fixed file limit?
There is no strict count limit in the UI, but very large or many PDFs can exceed browser memory on older devices.
