Reverse the page order of a PDF

Reverse Order flips a PDF so the last page becomes the first. Many document feeders scan a stack from the bottom up, and some printers stack output face up — either way you end up with a file that reads backwards. One click puts it right.

Reversing is quick even for long documents, because pages are only moved, not processed, and every page keeps its own size and rotation. If only the last few pages are out of place, Organize Pages is the better choice, because it lets you move single pages.

It also helps with double-sided scanning: if you scanned the backs of a stack by turning it over, those pages are in reverse. Reverse them here, or use Collate Double-sided Scan, which does the reversing and interleaving in one go.

Your PDF is handled in your browser and never uploaded. Pages are copied without any change, so text and images look exactly as before.

Questions and answers

Why would a PDF be in reverse order?

Document feeders and some printers handle the stack from the last sheet to the first. The result is a file that reads backwards.

Can I reverse only part of the document?

Use Organize Pages to move individual pages, or Extract Pages and type the pages in the order you want, such as 10, 9, 8.

I scanned fronts and backs separately. Is this the right tool?

Collate Double-sided Scan is better: it reverses the backs and puts each back after its front automatically.

Is my file uploaded?

No. Reversing happens on your device.

Does it change the pages?

No, only their order.
