I've used PDF Binder (I can't seem to find the download site....).

 

Also 'NAPS2' - "Not another PDF scanner" software. I like NAPS for scanning from my printer and then combining into a PDF. Along with scaling, interval scanning, and generally not using HP's terrible bloatware scan software. https://www.naps2.com/

Interesting. In my various searches this one hasn't popped up. Will look into it.

I guess it depends on what you need. This one wasn't to my liking.

Been using PDF Gear, it's good. Pretty sure it has an AI integration so might be worth understanding what they take if you are dealing with sensitive data

PDF Gear I'd never heard of but seems good. I have downloaded and installed it on a couple of my PC's.

A colleague found this and I thought it worth mentioning about PDF Gear: 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It seems they may be trying to hide the fact they are based in China perhaps?

 

Their website says they are a Singaporean Company.

 

There is a part of me that would be interested to see what traffic comes and goes from the app when using it, and where it goes.

 

For now I intend on removing this software.

It's slightly more complicated that a dedicated pdf merge program.   But https://www.libreoffice.org/  can import pdfs in it's Draw program/component.   At which point you can copy and paste the pages around or between documents.  And then export back out to pdf to create a merged pdf.  I've used it that way a few times.
