When files are named by a number or code, such as 01_invoice.pdf, 01_receipt.jpg and 02_invoice.pdf, this tool groups them by that starting part and creates one PDF per group: 01.pdf, 02.pdf and so on. Names like _01, 01- and 1 are treated as the same set.
Check and rename the sets in the preview before merging. All the merged PDFs download together in one ZIP file. It is ideal for employee files, student documents, property records and audit bundles.
How to merge PDFs by File Name
- Choose all the PDF and picture files at once, or drop a whole folder’s files.
- Check the sets in the preview and change a set name if needed.
- Click Merge and download one ZIP with a PDF for each set.
Private by design
Most online PDF sites upload your file to their server. AK Smarts PDF opens and processes it inside your own browser, on your computer or phone, so salary slips, bank statements, Aadhaar and PAN copies, and contracts never leave your device. It works on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone, and you can install it like an app to open PDFs with a double-click.
Questions
What if a file has no number at the start?
It goes into its own set named after the file. You can rename it in the preview.
In what order are files merged inside a set?
In natural name order, so 2 comes before 10.
Can I mix images and PDFs?
Yes. Pictures become PDF pages inside their set.
Is AK Smarts PDF safe for confidential files?
Yes. Files are opened and processed on your own computer or phone and are never uploaded to our server. Only e-Sign sends a short fingerprint of the document, never the document itself.
Does Merge PDFs by File Name work on my phone?
Yes. AK Smarts PDF works in Chrome, Safari, Edge and Firefox on Android, iPhone, Windows and Mac. You can also install it like an app.
