# PDF Merger using PyPDF2

This script demonstrates how to merge multiple PDF files into a single PDF using PyPDF2 library in Python.

## Requirements

- Python 3.x

- PyPDF2 library

  You can install PyPDF2 using pip:

    ```bash

        pip install PyPDF2

## Usage

1. Place the script in the directory where your PDF files are located.

2. Run the script using Python:

    ```bash

      python pdf_merger.py

The script will merge all the PDF files in the current directory into a single PDF file named combined.pdf.

### Code Explanation

The Python script uses PyPDF2 library to merge PDF files:

    

      import PyPDF2

      import sys

      import os

      

      merger = PyPDF2.PdfMerger()

      

      for file in os.listdir(os.curdir):

          if file.endswith(".pdf"):

              merger.append(file)

      

      merger.write("combined.pdf")

The  **PdfMerger object** from PyPDF2 library is used to merge multiple PDF files. It iterates through the files in the current directory and appends all files with a **.pdf** extension to the merger. Finally, it writes the merged PDF to a file named combined **.pdf**

Feel free to modify the script or adapt it according to your specific requirements.

For more information about PyPDF2 library and its functionalities, refer to the [PyPDF2 documentation](https://pypi.org/project/PyPDF2/).
