Scanned documents come out of order more often than not — the last page scanned first, a duplicate slipped in, a blank page from the feeder. Fixing that by hand usually means opening a heavy PDF editor for what should be a thirty-second job: drag a few pages around, delete a couple, done.
How to reorder pages in a PDF
Go to the Reorder PDF Pages page and upload your file. Every page appears as a thumbnail — drag them into the order you want, then download. There’s no need to know page numbers in advance; you’re arranging what you can actually see.
How to delete pages from a PDF
Go to the Delete PDF Pages page, upload your file, and click the ones you want gone. This is the faster tool when all you need is removal — a blank page, a cover sheet you don’t want included, a duplicate.
Doing both at once
Both tools work from the same thumbnail view, so if a document needs pages both reordered and removed, you can delete the ones you don’t want on the Reorder PDF Pages page while you’re already rearranging the rest — no need to run two separate passes on the same file.
Common situations this fixes
- A scanner fed pages in the wrong order
- A document has a few blank pages mixed in from double-sided scanning
- You only need certain pages from a larger file, in a different sequence than they currently appear
- A cover page or table of contents needs to move to the front
What if the PDF is password-protected?
Remove the password first with Unlock PDF (you need to know it) — an encrypted file can’t be edited by any tool until it’s unlocked.
After organizing your pages
- Rotate any pages that came out sideways
- Compress the file once it’s finished
- Split it into separate files if different sections need to go to different people
