The GUI is written in Java Swing and it provides functions to select files and set options. It's made over the iText library. This application has been developed by Andrea Vacondio.

One of the common file extension on the computer is Portable Document Format (PDF). It runs on multi-platform operating system and application. As the document extension, PDF can include texts, pictures, and some additional information in one format document. PDF help people with different operating system to share or exchange the files without any challenges of compatibility. Using PDF people don't need to convert document files into other extension to be opened on different word processor.  

PDF helps Linux, Mac and Microsoft users to exchange the document without thinking about compatibility on the office document processor application. One of the biggest challenges for users to send the document files written on different processor is compatibility.  User can save the document on the Libre Office as doc or Docs, but it never accurately opened on the Microsoft office. Using PDF, style, fonts, and lay out are generated into general format which can read by the specific application. 

Merging, extracting and spliting PDF document is another common users need. However, people sometime need to split a PDF document into another one. in other case, people need to extract some pages into a different file. on the MIcrosoft Windows, Adobe Professional is the most used application to run this function.
