Merge many web pages or HTML into a PDF or DOCX

Any PDF's created with our API can easily be merged together into a combined PDF. Also Word documents created with our API can also be merged together into a single DOCX document, which is useful if you want to create a book type document. But of course you can't merge PDF and DOCX documents together!

To merge a document just pass the ID of the document you want to merge a document with in the mergeid parameter, the new document will then be appended to the existing document. The ID of a document is returned when it is created by calling the save method of the API.

Merge a batch of PDF's

The following examples shows how to convert three web pages into three separate PDF documents, before merging them into one.

Merge Documents using a Web Scraper

GrabzIt's Web Scraper offers a streamlined way to merge documents. We've simplified the process with ready-made templates for PDF and DOCX merging. These scrapes may involve creating temporary files to facilitate the merging of content, the largest document is the finished document.
