Merge PDFs troubleshooting

Common issues

  • If one file fails, remove it and test others to identify the problematic source.
  • If merged output is huge, run Compress PDF as a second step.
  • If order is wrong, reorder list before rerunning merge.

Recovery steps

  1. Retry with a smaller sample file.
  2. Refresh and run the tool again.
  3. Use an alternative workflow from /tools if needed.
  4. Check /status for current incidents.

What this does not protect

  • Troubleshooting guidance does not guarantee recovery for damaged files.
  • It does not bypass document owner restrictions when cryptography is enforced.
