About Reorder PDF Pages

Reorder PDF pages by typing the order you want. Enter page numbers separated by commas, for example 3,1,2, and the tool builds a new PDF with the pages in that sequence. Ranges work too, and the letter z stands for the last page, so 4-z means page 4 to the end. To flip a document back to front, choose the reverse option instead.

Pages you leave out of the order are removed from the new file, so list every page you want to keep. If you only need to move one page, write all the others around it, such as 1,3,2,4-z. A page number that does not exist in the PDF gives an error. Files are uploaded to our server, deleted after 30 minutes, and no watermark is added.

Frequently asked questions

How do I rearrange the pages of a PDF?

Upload the PDF, choose Custom order and type the new page sequence, such as 3,1,2, then press the button. You download a new PDF with the pages in that order. The original file on your device is not changed.

What happens to the pages I leave out?

They are removed from the result, so always list every page you want to keep. For example, in a 5-page file, typing 2,1 gives a 2-page PDF. Use a range such as 4-z to keep everything from page 4 to the end.

What does z mean in the page order?

The letter z means the last page of the PDF, so you do not need to count the pages. For example 1,3,2,4-z keeps pages 1 to 3 in the new order and then continues with page 4 through the final page.

How do I reverse the order of PDF pages?

Choose Reverse all pages and press the button. The last page becomes the first and so on. This is useful for a document scanned back to front, and you do not need to type any page numbers.

Can I drag and drop pages to reorder them?

No. This tool works from a typed page order and does not show page thumbnails. Open the PDF in any viewer to check the page numbers first, then type them in the order you want.
