## PDF MERGER
- This is just a simple, yet useful code written in Python.
- Easy to use as well as really helpful
- Allows you to merge more than one PDF files into a single PDF.

### Instruction
- First and foremost copy and paste the code somewhere in your computer or download the PDF_Merger file
- Add all the PDF you want to convert into the [to_convert](https://github.com/4N1Z/code-n-stitch/tree/master/Python/PDF_Merger/to_convert).
- Then run the code
- The merged PDF will appear at [Converted file](https://github.com/4N1Z/code-n-stitch/tree/master/Python/PDF_Merger/converted).

## Requirements
- You should be able to run python inside your computer
> If not then refer [here](https://www.python.org/)
- Then go to your terminal and you should install PyPDF2, which is a python library.
> [Refer here](https://pypi.org/project/PyPDF2/)

#### That's it , with that you musst be able to merge your PDF's. 😄
