Merging PDF files can be useful for several reasons, including:

• Merging PDF files can help you organize your documents, make room for storage on your PC, and share several PDF files with others by combining them into one document.
• Merge many related documents into a single file. If you have multiple PDF documents that are linked to each other, you can merge them into one file to ease management and distribution.
• File reduction. If you have many small PDF files, you can combine them into large files to reduce the number of files you need to manage.
• Protection. If you have confidential information in various PDF documents, combining them into one document and applying password protection to that document can improve information security.

In general, merging PDF files can simplify workflows and help information management and sharing.
