How to Combine Multiple PDF Reports into One Large File
If you belong in a group who often comes face to face with complicated reports, then you need to know that you’re not alone.
Report making is a skill, a difficult skill to master. The thing that makes it even more difficult is that each report has two dimensions:
● It has to provide accurate information, for upper management’s convenience
● It has to be done quickly, usually following a strict deadline.
And let’s face it — there is no fun involved, at all. Thankfully, we found a way to help you create those files faster and with less effort.
Let’s first go over the fact that a large percentage of reports involve the PDF. For more than 25 years, the PDF has been the most used electronic format for viewing and sharing documents. Right now, we often receive sensitive data through PDF email attachments and, even more often, the finished reports are sent out in PDF as well.
It’s no wonder. The PDF is reliable, secure and compresses large files.
The main issue with these documents is that they are not editable. There is no option to edit the content inside them and even to manipulate the entire documents. This is a perfect time to say to yourself that you’re going to stop doing everything manually and try a software that can genuinely help you out.
Start with Able2Extract. This tool does everything related to PDF, including converting, creating and editing all types of documents.
So far we covered that reports and PDF go hand in hand and that you should use Able2Extract for all PDF work. End result?
Install Able2Extract and use it to edit PDF content, merge multiple PDFs together and perform other page edits. When you’re finished, just export your prepared document into any file type you’d like and you’re set. You just saved yourself a ton of time.
We will explore Able2Extract’s PDF merging capabilities through this quick tutorial:
1. Open your PDF in the program and click on the Edit button from the toolbar
2. With the editing panel open, select Insert From PDF and click on the Open button to select a new PDF document
3. Enter the number of the page (or range of pages) where you’d like to insert a file. Click on Insert.
4. Able2Extract 10 will then add one or multiple new pages as you’ve selected.
5. The last step is to click on the Save icon in the top menu and save your new changes.
Now you have a new PDF document created from 2 completely separate files. You can do this as many times as you’d like.
Merging your PDFs is an amazing feature that can substantially speed up report making. The best part is that no conversion is necessary since the PDF page addition is instantaneous and immediately visible.
Before you go on with your work, remember that there are a lot of things we can do on our own. PDF merging is just not one of them.
Hope you found this tutorial useful. Happy reporting!
