  • PDFs may be too complicated to merge like that... try: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3444645/merge-pdf-files – Larry the Llama Dec 01 '21 at 05:40
  • you can't join two PDF like this (the same with Excel files, images, JSON file, etc.) PDF has complex structure which can't be resize in this way. Every file may have ie. `header, data, footer` and you have to add `data` from one file in another file - and create new file with only one `header` and one `footer` – furas Dec 01 '21 at 05:47
