Why merging PDFs on mobile is hard (and how to make it easy)
On application day, you often need a single PDF: combined marksheets, experience letters, category certificate, or a self-declaration. Many candidates try to do it through random apps that add watermarks, require logins, or fail when internet is slow.
The easiest approach is to use a simple merge tool that works smoothly on mobile, lets you attach multiple PDFs, and gives you one final download. SarkariPixel's Merge PDFs tool is built for exactly this use case.

Best order for common govt exam uploads
If you are not sure about the sequence, use a clean, examiner-friendly order. The goal is to reduce confusion in verification.
| Use case | Recommended order | Why this helps |
|---|---|---|
| Education proof | 10th → 12th → Graduation → PG (if any) | Matches most application form sequences |
| Category certificate | Certificate → Annexures → Supporting docs | Verification becomes faster |
| Experience | Offer letter → Joining → Salary slips → Relieving | Gives a clear timeline |
Common problems (and quick fixes)
Problem 1: Downloads stop after the first file on mobile
This is usually a browser permission issue (Chrome/Android). Enable "Automatic downloads" for the site, then try again.
Problem 2: The merged PDF is too large
If your merged PDF exceeds the portal limit, use the safe loop (reduce size via PDF → Image → Images → PDF):
Problem 3: I only have images, not PDFs
Convert images to a single PDF first, then merge if needed:
Problem 4: My PDF is scanned sideways or unclear
If the scan is unclear, you can improve readability before final submission using Enhance Lab (especially for faint text):
