Reorder PDF Pages

Processed locally. Your file never leaves your browser.
Common questions
Why do I type page numbers instead of dragging page thumbnails?
Showing thumbnails means rendering each page to an image, which needs a full PDF rendering engine — a large extra library this tool deliberately does not load. Typing the order keeps the tool small and fast and keeps everything on your own device. For common jobs — moving the last page to the front, reversing a scan, swapping two sections — the sequence is quick to type, and the tool shows you the resulting order before you commit.
What syntax does the order field accept?
Single pages separated by commas, like 3,1,2. A run of pages as a range, like 4-6. And a descending range to reverse a run, like 3-1, which expands to 3, 2, 1. You can combine them: 3-1,4,5.
Can I delete or duplicate pages with this?
No — this tool only rearranges. Every page of the original must appear exactly once, and the output always has the same number of pages as the input. If a page is missing or listed twice, the tool tells you which one and does nothing until it is fixed. To remove pages use Delete PDF Pages; to extract a section use Split PDF.
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
No. The file is opened, rearranged, and re-saved by your own browser and is never sent to a server. That is also why very large files are limited: everything has to fit in your browser memory.
Are the pages themselves changed?
No. Each page is copied across with its own content and its own size, so a document that mixes portrait and landscape pages keeps each page exactly as it was — only the sequence changes.
Does the rearranged file keep the original document properties?
The rearranged PDF is written as a new document, so document properties such as Title and Author are not carried over — the same as this site's Merge and Split tools. If you need to set them, use the PDF Metadata Viewer & Remover afterwards.
What happens with a password-protected PDF?
It is rejected with a clear message rather than partially processed. This tool cannot ask for or apply a password, so an encrypted PDF cannot be opened — remove the password in whatever app created it first.
