How to use the Split & Merge tool
Deleting pages
Simply select the trash icon beneath a page to remove it.
đ If you make a mistake in Split & Merge, the Undo and Redo buttons have your back!
Moving pages
To separate, reorder, or add new pages, simply drag and drop.
Separate specific pages from others in your file by dragging the desired page into the Drag and Drop pages box. This will create a new file row.
Merge separate pages into one file by dragging the desired pages into the same row.
Rearrange your pages by dragging them into your preferred order. When you export your content to Kami, the document will appear in the order you arranged it.
Rotating pages
Use the circular arrows to rotate the page 90 degrees on each click. This will change the way the pages look when you open the file in Kami again.
Duplicating pages
Creating different files that need the same page? Use the Duplicate button to instantly duplicate that page.
Merge Mode
Selecting Merge mode lets you combine your files/pages into a single file. You can merge extra pages or whole files into one.
Select Split & Merge, add the files youâd like to merge, then click Next.
Select Merge Mode at the top of the screen.
Use the + button to add any additional materials.
Drag the pages to reorder them, if needed.
Click the EXPORT ALL button in the top right.
Select where you want to save your files and click Continue.
Adding templates from the Kami Library
In the Kami library, each resource has an Add to Split & Merge Drawer button.
You can select this button on as many resources as you like to add them to your drawer in the bottom right-hand corner. Select Split & Merge when finished.
Now youâll see your selected templates in your drawer. Click Open in Split & Merge.
From here, you can add more materials if needed. Otherwise, click Next.
What file types can be used in the Split & Merge tool?
The Split & Merge tool is compatible with PDFs and all other Google file formats (Slides, Docs, etc.), though they will be converted to PDFs before theyâre loaded into the Split & Merge tool.
