# Rotate, reorder, delete or add pages

> [Organize PDF](https://pdfbetter.com/tools/organize-pdf/) does it all on one screen: drag thumbnails to reorder, rotate, duplicate, delete or insert pages, then click **Save PDF**. Rotate, Remove pages, Add pages and Resize each do one job. All run in your browser.

- Available on: without an account, Free, Pro, Business

Do it in PDFBetter: https://pdfbetter.com/app/tools/

1. **Open Organize PDF**: Drop the file. Every page appears as a thumbnail.
2. **Arrange the pages**: Drag pages, or select some and use the toolbar: **Move selection earlier**, **Move selection later**, **Rotate selection**, **Duplicate selection**, **Delete selection**, **Insert blank page**, **Insert pages from another PDF** or **Reverse order**.
3. **Or type the order**: Under **Or type an order**, enter positions such as `3, 1-2, 6-4`. Anything left out is added at the end.
4. **Click Save PDF**: `⌘/Ctrl` `Z` undoes while you work; `Delete` removes the selection.

> **Scanned a double-sided stack?:** **Collate duplex scan (fronts, then backs reversed)** interleaves a fronts-then-backs scan into the right order in one click.

## Single-purpose tools

| Tool | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| [Rotate PDF](https://pdfbetter.com/tools/rotate-pdf/) | Rotate chosen pages (or all, if none are selected), then **Save rotated PDF**. The rotation is saved in the file, so every viewer shows the pages upright. |
| [Remove pages](https://pdfbetter.com/tools/remove-pdf-pages/) | Click or type the pages to delete. A PDF needs at least one page. |
| [Add pages](https://pdfbetter.com/tools/add-pages-to-pdf/) | Insert **Blank pages** or **Pages from another PDF** **At the start**, **Before page**, **After page** or **At the end**. |
| [Resize](https://pdfbetter.com/tools/resize-pdf/) | Change the paper size (content is scaled) or crop the pages. |
| [Rearrange pages](https://pdfbetter.com/tools/rearrange-pdf-pages/) | The same screen as Organize, focused on order. |

If the document is already open in the editor, use **Pages** in the toolbar instead: it rotates, inserts, duplicates, deletes, crops and resizes pages, and your other edits move with them. See [Manage pages in the editor](https://help.pdfbetter.com/editing/manage-pages-in-editor/).

### Will rotating reduce quality?

No. Rotation is a page setting; the content isn't re-rendered.

### Can I do this without an account?

Yes. These tools run in your browser and download free without an account.
