# Reorder PDF pages

Drag the pages of a PDF into a new order and save it. **Everything happens in your browser** — the file is never uploaded.

**Reorder PDF pages** is an interactive tool that runs in a web browser at https://spirikle.com/tools/reorder-pdf-pages/. It processes files on the visitor's own device; nothing is uploaded. There is nothing to call from Markdown — open the page to use it.

## How to reorder PDF pages

### 1. Add your PDF

Drop the PDF onto the box above, or choose it from your device.

### 2. Drag pages into place

Grab a page by its handle and drag it to where it belongs. On a keyboard, focus the handle and use the arrow keys.

### 3. Save

Press Save PDF to download the reordered file.

## Fixing pages that were scanned out of order

A double-sided document fed through a scanner one side at a time, or a stack of pages photographed in the wrong order, is the usual reason. Seeing the pages makes it a minute's work.

You can delete and turn pages on the same screen, so one save fixes everything.

## Questions

### Does this work on a touchscreen?

Yes. Drag the handle on each page with your finger. Scrolling the page elsewhere still scrolls normally.

### Will the quality change?

No. Pages are moved, not re-drawn, so text stays sharp and searchable.

### Are my PDFs uploaded anywhere?

No. The tool runs entirely in your web browser: your files are opened and processed on your own phone or computer, and nothing is sent to a server — not to ours, not to anyone else's. The page is even set up so the browser itself blocks it from sending data elsewhere. Close the tab and nothing is left behind.

### Is it really free?

Yes, completely. There is no sign-up, no daily limit, no watermark and no paid version of this tool. Because the work happens on your own device rather than on our servers, it costs us nothing to run, so there is nothing to charge for.
