Acrobat -- Reverse Page Order (FREE)

A common request is for a way to reverse the order of the pages in a PDF, so I've developed a small tool that allows you to do it with a single click and I'm offering it for FREE. You can download it from here.

As always, if you have any questions about this tool, or any other tool I've developed, you can contact me directly, and if you find this tool useful and would like to donate, it's always appreciated!

This is what I was looking for, works perfect (Acrobat X Pro on Windows 10).
Found other page reverse scripts, but those only reversed the viewing sequence (not the page sequence).
The one you made works how I want it to work, reversing the page sequence (as the name states).
Thanks!!!

You are a hero, I spent several hours trying to do this by outputting in print mode then I found this link. I can't thank you enough.

Unknown said...

I had tried the "reverse print method" but Acrobat simply hung up, but your fix worked a treat. Many thanks - that was a great help.

Unknown said...

Brilliant — your script has made all the difference. I made a small donation and urge everyone else to do the same.

Glad to hear it, and thanks! Feel free to contact me privately in case you need any other PDF-related scripts...

Amazing! The only way I could scan some old cerlox-bound notes was to put them through the office scanner backward. Thank you for saving me moving each page individually!

Open Adobe Acrobat
Go to File
Find the PDF File in which you would like to reverse the pages
Now press CTRL+P or Apple+P to open a print dialog box
Check mark reverse pages (This will be under the print range section)
Now select the drop down menu under Printer
Adobe PDF
Hit the Ok button
Now save the document

@Admin
Sure, you can do that, but in the process you'll lose all metadata, form fields, bookmarks, links, comments, etc.

Thank you!!! So simple to add to Acrobat and works perfect.

Could the script be modified so as to reverse the pages of no x to Y no?

Gilad D. (try67) said...

@constantin
Yes, I can create for you a customized version that will do that. Contact me privately at try6767@gmail.com for a quote, if you're interested. Of course, you can always just extract those pages, reverse their order and then copy them back into the file, replacing the originals...
