How do I rearrange the pages of a PDF?

Choose your PDF and every page appears as a thumbnail. Drag a page to its new place (or use the arrow buttons), rotate or delete pages as needed, then select Save PDF. Your file never leaves your device, and the original is not changed.

or drag and drop it here

Runs in your browser — your file is not uploaded anywhere.

How to use Organize PDF

  1. Choose or drop your PDF — every page appears as a thumbnail.
  2. Drag pages into the order you want, and rotate or delete pages with the buttons under each one.
  3. Select Save PDF and download the organised file.

Everything in one view

Reordering, rotating and deleting usually means three separate tools and three downloads. Here you see every page and make all the changes together: fix a scan with pages in the wrong order, turn a landscape table the right way round, and drop blank pages in one go. Undo steps back one change at a time, and Start over puts the original order back.

On a phone, dragging between small thumbnails is awkward, so each page also has buttons to move it one place earlier or later.

What is kept in the new PDF

Pages are copied exactly — text stays selectable and images keep their quality. Bookmarks move with their pages, so a bookmark to a page you moved still opens that page. The document title and author are kept.

Deleted pages are not just hidden: they are left out of the new file completely, so their content cannot be recovered from it. That also makes the file smaller.

One limit: fill-in form fields may stop working in the organised copy. If your PDF is a form, fill it in first, or flatten it with Flatten PDF Form, then organise it.

Frequently asked questions

Is my PDF uploaded?

No. The thumbnails and the new PDF are made in your browser; the file never leaves your device.

Does it change my original file?

No. You download a new copy, named with “-organized” at the end. Your original stays exactly as it was.

Can I combine several PDFs and then reorder the pages?

Merge them first with Merge PDF, then open the merged file here to arrange the pages.

Does rotating a page lower its quality?

No. Rotation is stored as a setting on the page, so nothing is re-drawn or compressed.

Can I organise a password-protected PDF?

Remove the password first with Unlock PDF (you’ll need the password), then organise the unlocked copy.
