Businesses of any size continue to use PDFs despite - and perhaps because of - their stubborn resistance to simple editing
“perhaps because of”? ehm, yes? as far as I know that was the whole idea behind PDFs?!?

Yay! We’ve finally achieved what our collective unconscious has been working toward! A shitty document editing and layout suite that enables terrible workflow habits and invalidates an entire format.

jPDFTweak will handle merging and splitting, as well as a number of other PDF manipulation functions. I am not sure if the author accepts donations or not, it looks like no, so it is just free. http://jpdftweak.sourceforge.net/
I use it and it works well.
That’s because PDFs are optimized for display, not for modification. A PDF’s minimal support for interactivity is by design.

D&D?
