How to combine multiple PDF documents into one using Preview on macOS

07/09/2021 by ALOK DAS

Quite often, when preparing a report, presentation or other document that includes a number of separate fragments, it becomes necessary to combine various files – texts, tables, PDF documents, etc. This can be done both using special programs and standard macOS tools.

♥ BY THEME: How to change the default app to open files on macOS: 3 ways.

Did you have to combine several text documents into one for work or for your favorite hobby? For example, compose manuals for the internal use of the company or collect information from various sources that can be useful to you in what you love?

Many users simply manually copy texts from several sources and paste them into one separate document. However, this method has at least two disadvantages. Firstly, it does not provide an opportunity to properly format the resulting document, and secondly, it takes too much time. To combine several parts of PDF files or several PDF documents into one, it is better to use a standard program “View” on macOS.

♥ BY THEME: Free PDF editor: the best programs to edit PDF documents on your computer.

How to combine multiple PDFs into one document

You can combine multiple files into one PDF document using one window in the program “View”…

Open one of the files in View… To do this, click on the document, and it will automatically open in the application window. If this did not happen, open “View” in the Applications folder on your Mac, click on the tab “File” and from the menu select “Open”…

With the original PDF document open, click on “View” → “Miniatures” (keyboard shortcut ⌘ + ⌥ + 2)), and thumbnails of each page appear in the sidebar on the left. Thus, we get a “tiled” interface with the ability to swap fragments by simply dragging and dropping them. It is now possible to drag and drop any third-party PDF file in the base document. All nested and exported fragments can be deleted and moved in any way.

Scroll through them until you find the place where you want to insert the next document and select the corresponding thumbnail.

Go to “File” → “Edit” → “Insert” → “Page from file”…

In the dialog box, select the second PDF document you want to insert and click on “Open”… The second document will be inserted in the first one at the location you specified. If you need to insert multiple pages, follow the steps above for each one.

How to add individual pages to a PDF document

Using the program “View” you can also add part of another to one PDF document (for example, a chapter from a book or one page).

Open both documents in two separate program windows “View”… Make sure the thumbnails of both documents are clearly visible. If the thumbnails are not displayed, repeat the steps in the previous section.

In the second document, select the pages you want to insert in the first. You can select each individual page using the key Command (⌘)… If you need to add several pages, click on the thumbnail of the first page, scroll down to the last required page, hold down Shift (⇧), and then click on the thumbnail of the last page. Drag the selected page or pages of the second document to the sidebar with the thumbnails of the first document (where you specifically want to insert the selected pages).

Other options are also available in the menu, such as page rotation and flagging.

If there is no backup copy of the original, it is not recommended to keep the edited version. Open up “File” and select “Export to PDF”… In this case, you will have both the new and the original versions of the document. A window will open where you can rename the document and select the location where you want to save it. Press “Save”, and the edited copy is saved in the location you specified.

It’s hard to find a better PDF reader than iPad or iPhone with a large screen. Nevertheless, for a long time, documents in this format could only be read on portable devices. But iOS also has tools for PDF markup. Today there are many mobile applications that can also independently create documents in this format.

Our starting point is the appearance of a PDF file on the device. It can be created independently, received by e-mail or downloaded from any resource.

This feature may not seem particularly useful at first glance. Nevertheless, PDF has long been readable right inside an email message. Moreover, the application post office got a lot of useful tools. All of them are associated with the application of various markings in a PDF document.

It should be noted right away that standard iOS tools do not allow you to edit text or correct errors in PDF files.

But there is a useful ability to highlight an interesting paragraph by clicking on the markup icon.

A PDF document marked this way can be sent (re-sent). However, it is difficult to name the PDF markup capabilities in the application post office excellent.

The document cannot be temporarily collapsed in order to check something in the letter itself. You will have to finish the markup by pressing the button “Done”… After that, additional options will appear for the document: Reply All, New, and Discard Changes.

Unfortunately, after clicking the button “Done” there is no option to save PDF for subsequent local work with the document. To do this, you need to click the icon Share and choose an option Save to Files…

In this case, a copy of the PDF document will be created for editing.

How to read and draw (mark up) PDFs in iBooks and Files apps on iPhone and iPad

Initially, Apple did not envision that its iBooks application would read PDF documents. There was only a basic level of working with them, but real and practical scenarios were simply absent. However, users often need to keep in the same library next to fiction literature also operating instructions and service documents.

When opening a PDF file in an application Books, it is placed in the tab “Library”. At the very top there is a menu Collections, allowing you to quickly jump into different categories (Want to read, Read, Audiobooks, PDF, etc.). PDF files will accordingly be placed in the PDF section.

Among other things, in “Library” there is a possibility of manual sorting of PDF-files (rearrangement of places), which allows at least keeping documents related to each other side by side.

Given that the application “Books” from Apple offers virtually the same markup options as post office, you can use them in the same way. You need to click on the PDF to open the file controls, and then click on the markup icon. This will enable you to do the same work with color selection and with your fingers or using the Apple Pencil.

Almost any document-based application for Mac has the ability to create PDF files, but on iOS this functionality has not been distributed. However, if the application knows how to create any documents, it will most likely be able to create PDFs.

An example is an application from Apple called Pages (analogous to Microsoft Word). In it, after opening the document, tap on the ellipsis icon and select “Export”…

Then choose one format from four possible options. Among them is the PDF we need. After creating the PDF file, a menu will open automatically Share this with suggested options for sending the document or saving it on the device, or iCloud through the application Files…

Third party applications

PDF viewers can be downloaded from the App Store. They may have some advantages over inline elements. However, these bonuses usually do not justify their cost. For example, Adobe is releasing a free version of its famous product Acrobat Reader for iOS, but this is not so much a functional tool as a collection of floating advertisements for a subscription to a Creative Cloud service.

If you do not plan to use Markup for PDF, but just limit yourself to reading, take a look at the Amazon Kindle app.

The Kindle app for iOS (requires creating a free Amazon account) is actually even less organized than Books. The program makes it possible to display what it calls “Documents”… But this definition includes not only PDF files, but also any files in the Word format. There is no possibility to create subdirectories either, nor is it possible to drag and drop documents for organizing. But you can sort files by date, title, and so on.

When a PDF file is opened in the Kindle application, the user gets to work with it almost the same functions as with regular books. You can view both individual pages and their groups to quickly jump to the desired part of the document. But there are no markup and editing capabilities in this application either.

Weekend Reader is free to use with a limited number of PDF documents. However, this program is quite useful. It perfectly supports scripts and not only displays the text, but analyzes it, trying to present it in the most readable form. This becomes especially relevant when reading PDF on iPhone. Indeed, on such a small screen, in the process of work, you have to constantly scale the text and go to its panoramic view. But if you are already going to use a third-party PDF reader for iOS, then it is better to look for an option with the ability to create new documents.

How to compress (reduce size) a PDF file on Mac (macOS)

The .pdf format is ideal for accurately conveying textual information, including formatting and other elements. Another obvious plus of PDF is document password protection. But there is one minus – sometimes files with a “weight” of 200 KB when converted to this format grow to 1.2 MB, and this is not always convenient when transferring.

Mas owners can solve this problem even using standard means of the macOS operating system.

How to reduce (compress) the size of a PDF file in MacOS Viewer

1. Open the PDF in the application Viewwhose size you want to reduce.

2. In the menu bar at the top, select File → Export.

3. In the window that opens, click on the drop-down menu opposite the inscription Quartz Filter and select Reduce file size.

4. Click Save.

Next, a copy of the selected file with a reduced size will be created.

How well does the Quartz filter compress the image? In a test example, a file with page scans in A4 format of 6 MB in size was compressed to 800 kb (with inevitable, but not fatal quality losses). In general, the compression ratio here depends on the source – if it was a document converted from Word to PDF, its size will decrease by 10 times.

If the quality of the image obtained after filtering does not suit you, it makes sense a more powerful PDF editor, for example PDF Expert, which, among other things, has tools for compressing the file. But, again, in general, for most operations of this kind, the Quartz filter is quite enough.
