PDFsam Basic or PDF Split and Merge is a free and open source cross-platform desktop application to split, merge, extract pages, rotate and mix PDF documents.
The distribution system
PDFsam Basic is a desktop application freely accessible from the project's page both as source and compiled code. It is available as MSI package for 32-bit and 64-bit MS Windows, .dmg for Mac OS X, .deb package for Debian based GNU/Linux distributions and ZIP bundle for the power users' convenience.
Functionalities
- Merge PDF files selecting entire documents or subsections of them. It provides a number of settings to let the user decide what to do in case the original PDF files contain Acro Forms or an outline (bookmarks) and it can generate a table of contents, normalize pages size and add blank pages.
- Split PDF files in a number of ways:
- After every page, even pages or odd pages
- After a given set of page numbers
- Every n pages
- By bookmark level
- By size, where the generated files will roughly have the specified size
- Rotate PDF files where multiple files can be rotated, either every page or a selected set of pages
- Extract pages from multiple PDF files
- Mix PDF files where a number of PDF files are merged together taking pages alternately from them
- Save and restore of the workspace
Architecture
PDFsam Basic relies on Sejda SDK, an open source and task oriented Java library to edit PDF files and SAMBox, a PDFBox fork.
Requirements
PDFsam Basic is written in Java and JavaFX and requires a working Java Virtual Machine version 8 or above installed in the operating system in order to run.
