pdfunite is part of the poppler PDF library. It is a command-line tool use to join PDF files. This library provides a PHP wrapper around pdfunite.

Installation

Usage

The join method accepts any number of input files, the last parameter is the output file.

$unite = new Koerel\PdfUnite\PdfUnite();
$unite->join('file1.pdf', 'file2.pdf', 'output.pdf');

If the pdfunite-binary is not in the $PATH you can pass it's path to the constructor.

$unite = new Koerel\PdfUnite\PdfUnite('path/to/pdfunite');
$unite->join('file1.pdf', 'file2.pdf', 'output.pdf');

To get the result as a string you can chain the output() method

$unite = new Koerel\PdfUnite\PdfUnite();
$pdfData = $unite->join('file1.pdf', 'file2.pdf', 'output.pdf')->output();

To download the resulting PDF, you can chain the download() method

$unite = new Koerel\PdfUnite\PdfUnite();
$unite->join('file1.pdf', 'file2.pdf', 'output.pdf')->download();
