Reorder PDF pages — free forever
Put pages back in the right order.
How it works
Drop your PDF on the Pelican Drop Desk.
Type the new page order, e.g. '3, 1, 2, 4-6'.
Click Run and download the reordered PDF.
Use cases

FAQ
How do I describe the new order?
List every page in the order you want, e.g. '3, 1, 2, 4-6'. You can repeat a page number to duplicate it.
Do I have to include every page?
No. Any page you leave out won't appear in the result. This means reorder doubles as a way to pick a subset of pages.
Is drag-and-drop coming?
Yes — the upcoming Workspace editor will offer a visual thumbnail-grid for reordering.
Is anything uploaded?
No. Pages are reshuffled in your browser using pdf-lib.
