Several of my friends that do not consider themselves to be programmers have asked if I know of an easy way to merge multiple PDF files into one file. Of course, I instantly thought of using LEADTOOLS in PowerShell.

To get started, you need the LEADTOOLS assemblies and a license file. If you have not already purchased LEADTOOLS, you can download and request a 60-day evaluation license from our website. From there, all you need is a text editor to create your PS1 script file.

I have attached the complete PowerShell script to merge multiple PDF files into single file as well as launch.json file for VSCode. Below are some snippets so you can get an idea of how easy this is.

You might have heard about how LEAD has a world-class Document Converter. Our Document Converter can easily transform HTML to PDF. The portability of a PDF allows you to access content from webpages across multiple devices both on- and off-line.

Below are a few code snippets to convert HTML to PDF.

Admittedly, I am late to the party, but I have just started digging into PowerShell. The more I dig, the more I find that there is not much you cannot do in PowerShell.

Recently, I was browsing the forums and came across a post asking if it is possible to use LEADTOOLS in PowerShell to split multi-page PDF files into multiple single page PDF files. The answer is absolutely!

The .NET Conf team is bringing you another “.NET Conf: Focus” event this July all about working on and using F# programming language. “.NET Conf: Focus” is a series of smaller, live events that we deliver to you throughout the year that are focused on specific things you can do with .NET.

.NET Conf: Focus on F# is a free, one-day livestream event that features speakers from the community and Microsoft teams diving into all things F#. Learn how F# lets you write succinct, performant, and robust code and the .NET runtime you can trust to build mission-critical software.

We have done several posts that uses the LEADTOOLS Document Converter to convert and merge multiple images and documents, including PDF. However, if all you need is to merge multiple PDF files into a single PDF file, LEADTOOLS has a PDFFile class that can combine PDF files with one-line of code.

The PDFFile class is available for .NET FX, .NET Core, and Java. In addition to PDF file merge, the PDFFile class provides much more including getting information about the file, getting PDF metadata, encrypting and decrypting PDFs, distilling PostScript to PDF, digital signing, bookmarking, annotating, and web optimizing.
