How to move a block of pages withing a PDF

Post by kss »

I have a few PDF files that are comprised of 50-70 pages each. These pages were scanned out of order (date ranges don't match, page numbers don't match) and I need to get them in order. Since all of the pages contain a report date, I thought of searching for the date and selecting all the documents that had the date (that would be easiest) and then either moving those pages into their own PDF of just re-ordering them within the existing doc. Can't figure that one out either, but that would be awesome if do-able.

I can figure out how to 1) select a group of pages or 2) drag and drop them in the order I want within the doc.

This seems like it would be a common feature in an editor but for some reason I'm missing it. I've only used the apps for 1 day!

Thanks,

You can change the order of the pages in a file with Thumbnails Pane (Ctr+T)
It's impossible to lead us astray for we don't care even to choose the way.
