Now that Dropbox has advanced editing features for PDFs. It would be super helpful to Select Multiple PDFs and merge them together. This will save time, and improve efficiency throughout my work day.

It appears you can only add one pdf file to the merge at a time. When I try to select multiple pdf's it won't work. Is ther a way to merge on my dropbox web platform?

Status changed:ClosedtoAcceptedHi, I'm Nate, and I'm an engineer on the team at Dropbox which developed the PDF editor. I see that this topic has been closed since December, but I wanted to pop in and note that there is a solution to this using the PDF editor. I'm sorry it wasn't immediately obvious, I'll mention that to our Design team.
First, upload at least one of the PDFs you want to merge to Dropbox. Then, open it and select "Edit". Once in Edit mode, you can click on the "Insert pages" button (see below).
This will open up a Dropbox file chooser, where you can insert other PDFs stored on Dropbox into the document, or you can select "Upload files" to upload and insert PDFs stored on your computer.
Once you've chosen the file(s) you want to add, you can use the PDF editor to rearrange, delete, or markup the PDFs. When you're ready to save, just click Save in the top right. I'd recommend saving as a copy, else you will lose your original file.
I hope that helps!
Yes, please answer the question about adding pdf files to merge. I am having the issue with one pdf added at a time. I have 80 pages to merge to form a songbook. Thank you
