Reorder and delete PDF pages

See every page as a thumbnail, drag them into the order you want, remove the extras. Saved on your device.

Lets you drag the pages of a PDF into a new order, delete pages you do not need, and saves a new PDF. It is free, needs no account and adds no watermark, and your files are not uploaded: everything runs in your browser on your device. The size limit is your device’s memory, and phones hold less; give the page a short while after one visit to save itself for offline use, and then it works offline.

    Your files are processed on this device and never sent to a server. Reload the page to clear everything from memory.

    How it works

    1. Drop a PDF. Every page appears as a thumbnail.
    2. Drag pages into a new order, or use the arrows. Click the × on a page to delete it, or type an order like 3, 1, 2.
    3. Save. The new PDF downloads with only the pages you kept, in your order.

    In your browser, not on a server

    pdf.js renders a thumbnail of every page so you can see what you are moving. When you save, pdf-lib copies the pages you kept, in your order, into a new document. The page contents are not re-rendered or recompressed, so text stays text and images keep their quality.

    Compared with upload-based tools: Reordering pages is a five-second job that upload-based tools turn into an upload, a queue and a download page, often behind a login or a daily cap. Here the thumbnails appear as fast as your device can draw them and the result is written in your tab.

    Verify it yourself. Give the page a short while after one visit to save itself for offline use, then turn off Wi-Fi or switch to airplane mode and run the tool again. Or open your browser's developer tools (F12, or Cmd-Option-I on a Mac), pick the Network tab, and watch it while you convert. The panel above does the same count for you.

    Questions

    Can I add text, a highlight or an image to the PDF too?

    Yes. Edit PDF adds text, cover boxes, highlights, drawings and images to a page and rotates, deletes or reorders pages, all in your browser. It cannot change the text already in the file.

    Does reordering change the quality of the pages?

    No. Pages are copied into the new document as they are, with their text, images and vector graphics untouched. Only the order and the set of pages change.

    Can I duplicate a page?

    Yes. Type the order by hand and repeat a page number, for example 1, 1, 2 to get two copies of page 1.

    What about bookmarks, links and form fields?

    Text and graphics on every page are preserved. Links inside a page keep working. Document-level bookmarks (the outline) are not carried over because page numbers change; most viewers show the page list instead.

    Is the PDF uploaded?

    No. Thumbnails are rendered with pdf.js and the new file is written with pdf-lib, both running in your browser. After one visit and a short wait, switch off your network and it still works.
