But if you wish to export multiple contacts as a single vCard file, how can you achieve it? This article will introduce a workaround.* Actually, it is considerably simple to export multiple Outlook contacts as separate vCard files. We can just select all of the contacts which we would like to export, and then drag and drop them to one destination folder in File Explorer. Next they will be saved as vCard files. However, if you hope to merge many contacts into one vCard file, it will be a little difficult. Thus there are many related third party tools in the market. But in fact, with the assistance of Gmail, you can achieve it even without extra payments for 3rd party tools. ## **Export Multiple Contacts as a Single vCard File with the Help of Gmail** 1.
