Merge RC Book PDF — Vehicle Registration Front + Back
Overview
Insurance renewals, fitness certificate applications, and PUCC or permit uploads often ask for your vehicle RC (Registration Certificate) as a single PDF showing both the front and back, but you usually scan the two sides separately. PDF Mavericks merges the front and back into one ordered PDF directly in your browser, so a document with your vehicle and owner details never leaves your device. Add both sides in order, merge, and download. If the file is over the portal's limit, compress it in the same browser without uploading anything.
How to Use This Tool
Scan front and back as separate PDFs. Drop both into /merge (front first). Download as RC_<REGISTRATION-NUMBER>.pdf.
- Scan or photograph both sides of the RC clearly.
- Open the Merge PDF tool - browser-only, no sign-up.
- Add the front and back files.
- Order them front first, then back, and merge into one PDF.
- Download, and compress if the file is over the portal's size limit.
Why forms want front and back in one file
Insurance, fitness, and permit portals usually give a single upload slot for the RC and expect both sides in one PDF, since the registration and owner details span the front and back. Uploading two separate files is not possible when there is one field. Merging combines them in the right order.
The merge tool accepts photos or PDFs of each side and produces one ordered document ready for the slot.
Order, clarity, and size
Place the front page first and the back second unless the form says otherwise, and check both are upright and readable before you merge. A blurry or rotated RC can be rejected regardless of size.
If the combined PDF is over the portal's cap, compress it after merging. High compression usually clears a common 1MB or 2MB limit while keeping the registration number and details readable.
Masking details when appropriate
If you are sharing the RC where the full owner address or chassis number is not needed, redact those parts before uploading, then compress the masked file. Share the complete RC only with parties that genuinely require it.
Your RC stays on your device
Merging runs entirely in your browser using your device's own processing. Your RC scans are never uploaded to PDF Mavericks or any server, and nothing is stored after you close the tab. For a document tied to your vehicle and identity, that keeps it off every intermediary.

How do I merge the RC front and back into one PDF?
Open the Merge PDF tool, add both sides, order front then back, and merge. Download the single combined PDF for your upload.
Can I merge photos of the RC, not scans?
Yes, the merge tool accepts clear photos and PDFs of each side. Make sure both are upright and readable before merging.
Which side comes first?
The front is usually placed first and the back second, unless the form specifies otherwise. Check the merged file before uploading.
The merged RC file is too large - what do I do?
Compress it after merging. High compression usually clears a 1MB or 2MB portal cap while keeping the registration details readable.
