Merge Google Drive Files in Custom Order
The order of a merged PDF defines how readers experience the document. Neither the online converter nor the extension has a reorder step, so the order comes from how you pick and name your files.

Checking the order
After you pick the files, the online converter lists them below the picker button. The merged PDF follows the order shown in the converter's file list. There is no reorder step, so check that list before you click Convert.
Planning the order before selecting
For complex merges with many files, plan the order on paper first: what comes first, what is the main body, and what goes at the end. Number the file names in Drive (01, 02, 03) so the set is easy to pick in the right sequence.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I save a custom order for reuse?
No. For recurring merges with a consistent document set, keep the files named with number prefixes so the set is easy to pick in the same order each time.
