High-Performance Client-Side PDF Merging
Merging PDF files involves copying page dictionaries, resolving cross-reference tables (xref), and re-indexing object IDs into a unified document catalog. PDFCore Studio utilizes pdf-lib in local browser memory to copy page objects and font dictionaries without decompressing or degrading raster images, ensuring instantaneous execution and zero data leakage.
