This program makes it a breeze to combine PDFs. The free version allowed us to combine hundreds of PDF pages for home school curriculum in a matter of minutes. I decided to purchase the pro version to support the creators since their free version worked so well.
Had someone scan a bunch of double-sided documents at work for me and it came back as 30+ single PDF files. Was going crazy trying to find a simple and straightforward method for merging them all until I came across this application.
It's easy to use; I figured out how to accomplish my goal without having to read any manuals or howto's.
Merging PDFs, you lose bookmarks!
