In short: drop a PDF and every page appears as a thumbnail. Drag them into the order you want — with a mouse, a finger or the keyboard — turn or remove any page, add a blank page or pages from another PDF, and download the result. It runs on your device — nothing is uploaded — and the internal links follow the pages they point at, which is the thing reordering normally destroys.

Is it free, and is there a limit?: Free, with no task limit, no page limit and no size limit. Sejda allows 3 tasks an hour on its free tier and Smallpdf 2 a day; there is no server here, so there is nothing to meter.
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?: No. The pages are rearranged in your browser, so the document never leaves your device.
Do internal links survive a reorder?: Yes — and this is where it matters most, because every destination has moved. They are re-pointed at the pages they meant, and the result line tells you how many.
Can I delete pages as well as reorder them?: Yes. Mark any page and it is left out of the result. A link that pointed at a page you removed is deleted rather than left aimed at whatever took its place.
Can I rotate a page or add pages here?: Yes. Each thumbnail has a rotate button, and + Blank page and + Add PDF put new pages at the end, ready to drag into place.
Are bookmarks kept?: No. They are lost when pages are copied this way and cannot be recovered — stated rather than glossed over.

Reordering is where links break, and what this repairs

Reordering is the operation where internal links matter most, and the one where they are most reliably destroyed. If a contents page links to chapter three and chapter three moves to the front, the link has to move with it — that is the whole point of a link. What actually happens with the standard library call is worse than the link going stale: the destination is copied along with it, so the link ends up pointing at an orphaned duplicate that is not in the document at all.

Measured on a real PDF in September 2026: one working internal link went in, zero came out — on a plain reorder that kept every page. Form fields fared no better: one fillable field in, zero usable out, because the boxes are copied but the fields they belong to are never registered.

This page now records where every link pointed before anything moves, and re-points them at the pages they meant afterwards. It follows each form widget to its field and registers that too. And it tells you: the result line counts how many links were re-pointed, how many were deleted because their target was removed, and how many fields were kept fillable. A silent repair is better than none; a reported one is what lets you trust the file.

Bookmarks are the exception and the capability table says so plainly. They do not survive this kind of copy and cannot be rebuilt from what is left.

What happens to a link when you delete its page

Deleting is the other half of the tool, and it raises a question reordering does not: what should happen to a link that pointed at a page you removed?

The tempting answer is to leave it alone. That is the worst option, because the link does not become dead — it becomes wrong. Page numbers shift up, so a link to the old page seven now lands on whatever moved into that position, and a reader following it has no way to know they were sent somewhere unintended. A link that silently goes to the wrong place is worse than one that does nothing, because nobody notices it.

So those links are deleted, and counted in the result line. The text of the link stays visible — the words on the page are part of the page — but clicking it does nothing rather than something misleading.

One more thing worth knowing: removing pages usually shrinks the file less than you expect. A PDF shares its fonts and images across pages, and what remains still references most of them. If the goal is a smaller file rather than fewer pages, Compress PDF is the tool.

Why do it in the browser

Every large PDF site rearranges pages on a server, which means the document travels to a machine you do not control so that its pages can be put in a different order. The free-tier limits are the tell — they exist to protect bandwidth and CPU rather than to help you.

Checked in September 2026: Sejda allows 3 tasks an hour and caps documents at 50 pages and 50 MB. Smallpdf allows 2 tasks a day. iLovePDF allows roughly 1–2 an hour. PDF24 is genuinely unlimited and free — and its web version uploads too, though it also ships a desktop app that runs locally.

Rearranging pages is a copy operation that a browser performs perfectly well, so there is nothing to meter here: no tasks per hour, no page cap, no size cap. And the documents people reorder — scanned bundles, court exhibits, tender submissions, signed contracts — stay on the machine they were already on.

Frequently asked questions

Yes — completely free, with no task limit, no page limit, no size limit and no account. It runs entirely in your browser, so there is no server cost to recover and nothing to meter. For comparison, checked in September 2026: Sejda allows 3 tasks an hour with a 50-page cap, Smallpdf allows 2 tasks a day, and iLovePDF roughly 1–2 an hour.

No. The pages are rearranged in your browser by a JavaScript PDF library, so the document never leaves your device. That matters for what people actually reorder: scanned bundles, court exhibits, tender submissions and signed contracts.

Yes, and this is the operation where they are most reliably destroyed elsewhere. A link is stored as a reference to a page object, and the standard copy duplicates the destination along with the link — so it points at an orphan rather than at the page in your file. Measured on a real document, one working link went in and zero came out on a plain reorder that kept every page. This page records where each link pointed before anything moves and re-points them afterwards.

It is deleted, and counted in the result line. Leaving it would be worse than useless: page numbers shift up, so the link would land on whatever moved into that position and send the reader somewhere unintended with no way to tell. The visible text stays — it is part of the page — but clicking it does nothing rather than something wrong.

Yes. A fillable box is a widget; the field it belongs to is a separate object it points at, and copying pages brings the widgets without registering the fields — so readers show them as decoration. Measured: one fillable field in, zero usable out. This page follows each widget to its field and registers it, and reports how many it kept.

No. They are lost when pages are copied this way and cannot be rebuilt from what remains, which is why the capability table says No rather than something vaguer. If the outline matters more than the order, consider whether the reorder is worth it.

Drag a page thumbnail to where you want it and the others move around it — on a phone, drag the ⠿ handle; with a keyboard, focus a page and press Alt with an arrow key. Every page in the document is shown, so you can see the effect as you go rather than working from page numbers in a text box — which is the part that makes this quicker than a range-based tool for anything non-trivial.

Yes, in one pass. Mark the pages you do not want, drag the rest into order, and the result is built once. There is no need to run a delete and then a reorder separately.

Yes. Each thumbnail has a ⟳ button that turns it 90° clockwise, and Rotate all turns every page. The rotation is a setting on the page, so nothing is re-rendered. To pick pages by odd, even or orientation, Rotate PDF has those options.

Yes. + Add PDF adds every page of another PDF at the end, and you drag them where they belong or remove the ones you do not need. Links inside each file are repaired, and form fields that share a name are renamed so they do not fill each other in. + Blank page adds an empty page the size of the one before it.

No. The pages are copied as objects — same text, images, fonts and resolution. Nothing is re-rendered or re-compressed, so the pages are bit-for-bit what they were. Only their order and the links between them change.

Usually less than you expect. A PDF shares fonts, images and other resources across its pages, and what remains still references most of them — so removing half the pages rarely halves the size. If a smaller file is the goal rather than fewer pages, Compress PDF is the tool for it.

There is no limit we impose. The practical one is your device’s memory and how many thumbnails are comfortable to work with — a few hundred pages is fine on a laptop, and a very long document is easier to handle in sections with Split PDF first.

Yes. A file that only restricts editing or printing opens automatically; a file that needs a password to open asks for it, and the password stays on your device. The result comes out without the protection.

Nothing — it is read, never modified. The result is a separate download, so you can try an order, look at it, and come back and try another without having lost anything.
