Page management
Reorder, rotate, merge, split, duplicate, delete — all from the thumbnail rail.
Organize pages
- Reorder: drag thumbnails into the order you want.
- Per-page controls: each thumbnail offers rotate, duplicate, delete, and insert-blank.
- Rotate: turn any page 90°, 180°, or 270° clockwise.
- Merge: merge another PDF at any position — or just drop a file onto the canvas.
- Delete / duplicate / insert blank: one click per thumbnail.
Sideways scans get a one-click, undoable "Turn upright" banner — for 90°, 180°, and 270° camera-rotation metadata alike. Mirrored artwork (a generator bug that shows in every viewer) is fixed with per-page horizontal/vertical flip: the export mirrors the real content while your marks stay put.
Extract and split at export
In the Save dialog:
- Extract a range — e.g.
1-3,5— to export only those pages. - Split — emit one file per page.
Compare two versions
Press Compare, drop in two files, and read the diff — additions in green, removals in red, with per-page counts. Built for "did the contract terms change between versions?"
Automate it
