About This Tool
The Grid Combine tool offers a unique way to merge multiple separate PDF files onto single pages. Unlike the standard "Merge PDF" tool which simply appends pages, or the "N-Up" tool which rearranges pages from a single document, Grid Combine takes multiple input files and arranges them side-by-side in a customizable grid layout.
You can choose from various grid configurations such as 2x1, 2x2, 3x3, etc. This is perfect for comparing multiple documents, creating handouts from different sources, or printing compact versions of several files.
Customize the output with control over page size, orientation, margins, spacing, and borders. All processing happens locally in your browser for maximum privacy.
