PHP library for merging multiple PDFs.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require kadudutra/libmergepdf
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Append the first ten pages of **bar.pdf** to **foo.pdf**:

```
use kadudutra\libmergepdf\Merger;
use kadudutra\libmergepdf\Pages;

$merger = new Merger;
$merger->addFile('foo.pdf');
$merger->addFile('bar.pdf', new Pages('1-10'));
$createdPdf = $merger->merge();
```

Bulk add files from an iterator:

```
use kadudutra\libmergepdf\Merger;

$merger = new Merger;
$merger->addIterator(['A.pdf', 'B.pdf']);
$createdPdf = $merger->merge();
```

### Merging pdfs of version 1.5 and later

[](#merging-pdfs-of-version-15-and-later)

The default `FPDI` driver is not able handle compressed pdfs of version 1.5 or later. Circumvent this limitation by using the slightly more experimental `TCPDI` driver.

```
use kadudutra\libmergepdf\Merger;
use kadudutra\libmergepdf\Driver\TcpdiDriver;

$merger = new Merger(new TcpdiDriver);
```

### Using an immutable merger

[](#using-an-immutable-merger)

Immutability may be achieved by using a `driver` directly.

```
use kadudutra\libmergepdf\Driver\Fpdi2Driver;
use kadudutra\libmergepdf\Source\FileSource;
use kadudutra\libmergepdf\Pages;

$merger = new Fpdi2Driver;

$createdPdf = $merger->merge(
    new FileSource('foo.pdf'),
    new FileSource('bar.pdf', new Pages('1-10'))
);
```

Known issues
------------

[](#known-issues)

- Links and other content outside a page content stream is removed at merge. This is due to limitations in FPDI and not possible to resolve with the current strategy. For more information see [FPDI](https://www.setasign.com/support/faq/fpdi/after-importing-a-page-all-links-are-gone/#question-84).
