PDFCombo app icon
PDFCombo for Mac OS X 10.6+ can combine PDFs while preserving table of contents
PDFCombo version 1.0.3 adds three new features:
  • You can edit the Table of Contents (TOC) entry for the PDF directly in the table's first column. This is especially useful when using the Print dialog in other applications to Print as PDF to PDFCombo, where the PDF filename may be too generic.
  • New option to preserve or discard existing TOC in PDFs, where if you choose to discard existing TOCs, the generated combined PDF will only have top-level TOC entries corresponding to first page of each input PDF.
  • Keyboard shortcuts CMD + S for saving combined PDF to disk, and Option + CMD + S to save to temporary PDF.
PDFCombo is a free app for Mac OS X 10.6 and later, available from the Downloads page, and from the Mac App Store.

PDFCombo app version 1.0.2
Hold down Option key when clicking on "Save Combined PDF..." button to bypass the save dialog.
PDFCombo version 1.0.2 adds two new features:
  • Now you can print to PDFCombo from any app by including it as a target in the Print > PDF dialog. See the section "To add an item to the PDF pop-up menu" in this Apple Guide on how to print PDFs directly to applications like Evernote and PDFCombo. Use this technique to collect several printouts into one PDF such as when collating a web article split over multiple pages into one PDF, or to pack several related web articles into a PDF.
  • Hold down Option and click on "Save Combined PDF" button to bypass the save dialog and create a PDF in the temporary directory.
PDFCombo is a free app for Mac OS X 10.6 and later, available from the Downloads page.

Introducing PDFCombo: Free Mac OS X App to Combine PDFs with Table of Contents

10/28/2013

PDFCombo, a free app for Mac OS X to combine PDFs with table of contents.
PDFCombo is an app to combine multiple PDF files. Unlike other apps, PDFCombo preserves the Table of Contents (TOC) in the combined PDF. It can also add a new top-level TOC entry for each contributing PDF. This can be useful to keep a complex TOC neat & tidy, or to add a TOC item to demarcate contributing PDFs.

For example, if you've created PDFs using the File > Print... dialog in Mac OS X or you've got several scanned PDFs, you can combine them into one PDF with PDFCombo with automatic TOC entries to mark the first page of each contributing PDF.

PDFCombo is a free app available on the Mac App Store.
For editing the TOC in any PDF, consider PDFOutliner.

[2017 Update]: PDFSpeech is a new powerful app that can combine multiple PDF files into a PDF Pack. See this short walkthrough on how to print an entire book from safaribooksonline.com to PDFSpeech to create a PDF with a table of contents. PDFSpeech also includes the ability to insert clipboard contents as PDF into the Pack, and multiple pages selected & copied from Preview. The primary use of PDFSpeech is to help you read more by tapping into text-to-speech technology, and it enables easy control over pronunciations so you can listen to the generated speech for extended periods without any glaring mistakes.
