Frequently asked questions

What is Merge VCF files?

Combine several vCard files into a single address book you can import once.

When would I actually use this?

Moving an address book between a phone, a mail client and a spreadsheet, merging exports from two devices that each hold half the contacts, and reading a .vcf someone sent without importing it first.

What is the most common mistake?

Splitting a structured field on its separator without honouring the escape. A vCard writes a name and an address as parts joined by semicolons — but a semicolon inside a value is escaped, so a company written "Dupont & Sons\; Ltd" is one part and naive splitting tears it in two. Long values fold onto continuation lines for the same reason.

How is Merge VCF files different from Merge Excel files?

They sit next to each other but answer different questions: Merge Excel files is the one to open when you need it to combine several workbooks into one, keeping every sheet and renaming on collision. Pick whichever matches what you're starting from — both are free.

Is there a tool for the next step?

Merge ICS files is the closest one after this: Combine several calendar files into one, keeping every event.

What else is worth having open alongside it?

CSV to VCF and VCF to CSV — they come up in the same task often enough to be worth a second tab.

Where do the figures come from?

vCard files are read against the published specification, with line folding undone and escapes honoured before anything is split. The tools do not reconcile duplicates by guessing: merging keeps what both files agree on and shows you the rest rather than silently choosing.

ExplainerThe Number 1 and the Text "1" Are Not DuplicatesDeduplication compares whole rows exactly, cell type included. Five identical-looking rows came out as three, because one held a number, one a string and one a string with a leading space.How-toAdding Page Numbers to a PDF When the Pages Are Rotated or Mixed SizesNumbering a tidy document is trivial. The cases that bite are a page turned sideways, a Letter sheet among A4 ones, a print file with bleed, and a document that already prints its own number. All four were tested: on the first three the number lands exactly where you asked, and the fourth is not detected at all.GuideWhat a PDF Says About You: Reading and Clearing Its MetadataA PDF carries its metadata twice, in two stores that can tell different stories, and neither of them is the whole story. Here is what is actually in the file, what clearing it removes, and the two things that survive every wipe.How-toTurning Notes into a PDF Worth ArchivingPlain text has no layout, so any converter has to invent one for you. Here is exactly which decisions this one makes — page, margins, font, line breaks — what it does with a tab and a long line, and what you have to add yourself before a note is worth keeping.GuideCutting and Joining Audio Without a Click at the JoinThat tick at the edit point is not a flaw in the software. It is a step in the waveform, and a step is broadband energy — which is the definition of a click. Here is the arithmetic, measured, and the two places you can put a cut so it never happens.ExplainerMP3, WAV, FLAC: What Each Conversion Actually DestroysOne of these formats stores the samples, one stores the same samples packed smaller, and one stores a guess about what you would have heard. Which conversions between them are free, which are merely expensive, and which are one-way doors — with the arithmetic for each.
