Combine Resume & Cover Letter — frequently asked questions

What order should I use?+

Most portals expect the cover letter first, followed by the résumé — that's the default here, but you can swap it with one click.

Does this affect formatting?+

No — each PDF's original pages are copied in as-is, just combined into one file.

Can I add more than two documents?+

This tool is built for exactly resume + cover letter. For combining more files, use Merge PDF.

Do you upload my files to a server?+

No — every tool here processes your files entirely on your device, and nothing is uploaded to a server. The only exception is the AI tools, which send the extracted text (not the file) to Claude to do their work.

Is there a file size limit?+

There's no artificial limit we impose, but since processing happens in your browser, very large files (500+ MB or 1,000+ pages) are limited by your device's memory rather than by us.
