Reorder Pages lets you drag thumbnails to resequence a document — commonly used to fix scanner batches that came out of order or to rearrange a merged file into a logical reading order.
Office staff rearrange pages in bulk-scanned documents that came out of the scanner in the wrong order.
Analysts reorder chart pages, appendices, and summaries into the right narrative sequence before sharing.
Authors rearrange chapter PDFs from contributors into final book order before publishing.
Every page appears in a grid, which is easier to scan than a long list.
Select several pages and move them together. Use Reverse for stacks scanned back to front.
Undo any move before you download — nothing is saved until you do.
The pages are moved, not re-rendered, so quality stays the same.
Select a run of pages and drag them together — useful when a whole section is in the wrong place.
If the scanner fed the stack upside down, one click on Reverse fixes the entire order.
When a scan comes out as all fronts then all backs, drag each back page after its front. For very long files, split and merge in batches.
Nothing is saved until you download, and undo history lets you step back through every move.
