You don't - at least not by simply combining the byte streams. You will need to process each file, and merge them into a new PDF document.

Some pointers, maybe one of the solutions, depending on the platform you're on, works for you:

• PHP - How to combine / merge multiple pdf’s

• How to combine images inside pdf by programme?

• Need to merge multiple pdf’s into a single PDF with Table Of Contents sections

pdftk will merge multiple PDF files, as well as PDFsam..
