No watermarks or size limits—just a simple and easy-to-use online tool to add pages to your PDF files for free.

In this article, we’ll show you how you can easily add a page from one PDF file to another, combine the pages of many PDF files into one, and give you some tips for more cool PDF editing ideas.

How to Add Pages to a PDF

  2. Add the files you want to combine.

  3. Click “Merge PDF.”

  4. Download your converted file. Done!

You can also add a new PDF by right-clicking on a specific page, selecting “Insert,” and then “Insert PDF.” Or you can select “Insert blank page after” which will add a blank page to the document. With either method, you can rotate, delete, or rearrange the pages in any way you’d like.

Aside From Adding Pages to PDFs, What Else Can I Do?

 

We have over 20 useful PDF tools for you to use, depending on your needs. These include:

  • Compress - Reduce the size of files with our popular compression tool.
  • Split - Reverse the merging that you did here.
  • Converter - Need the PDF file in JPG, Word, Excel, or PPT? We’ve got you covered here.
  • Encrypt - Add password protection to your sensitive PDF files.

Is Smallpdf Free to Use?

 

You can use all the tools on our online site free of charge, with some limitations. If that isn’t enough, you may want to consider Smallpdf Pro. A Pro subscription gives you unlimited access to all Smallpdf features. You can use the offline desktop app, convert or compress multiple files at once with batch mode, and will no longer be limited by daily usage restrictions. You can try Smallpdf Pro out with our 7-day free trial to check out everything we have to offer before committing.
