How to Alternate Merge PDF Files for Free Online

Combine pages from two PDF documents in an alternating sequence. PortPDF's free online tool helps you interleave PDF files securely and privately.

What is Alternate Merging of PDFs?

Alternate merging, also known as interleaving, is a specific way to combine two PDF documents. Instead of appending one document after another, pages are taken alternately from each PDF. For example, page 1 from PDF A, then page 1 from PDF B, then page 2 from PDF A, and so on.
