6 ways to add, remove or reorder PDF pages
Several of these cost nothing. They differ in whether you can also change what's on each page.
As of October 2026, the simplest no-cost way to delete or reorder PDF pages on a Mac is Preview, which also rotates pages and drags in pages from another PDF. Publish Media Software (PublishMedia) adds, deletes and reorders pages and changes the page size in any modern browser, and also edits the words and pictures on each page; those changes and export cost $99 a year or $9.99 a month, and viewing is free. Paid Adobe Acrobat has page tools alongside text editing. LibreOffice Draw handles pages at no cost, and iLovePDF and Sejda offer browser page tools with limited free tiers.
Publish Media Software (PublishMedia)
Adds, deletes and reorders pages, changes the page size, and edits the words and pictures on each page, in any modern browser on Windows, Mac, Chromebook, Linux or iPad. Changes and export cost $99 a year or $9.99 a month. Limit: no merging or rotating.
Preview on a Mac
Built into every Mac at no cost: in the sidebar thumbnails you delete, reorder and rotate pages, and drag in pages from another PDF, then save with File › Export as PDF. Limit: it runs only on Macs and leaves existing paragraphs as they are.
Adobe Acrobat
Paid Adobe Acrobat Standard or Pro has page tools plus text editing, OCR, forms and signatures, and runs on Windows, Mac and the web. Limit: the page tools need paid Acrobat, since the no-cost Reader only views, comments, fills and signs.
LibreOffice Draw
At no cost on Windows, Mac and Linux, Draw shows a pane of pages where you can delete, add and drag pages into order, then use File › Export as PDF. Limit: text usually comes in as line-by-line boxes, with uninstalled fonts swapped.
iLovePDF
Browser-based on any computer, iLovePDF has separate tools for removing, organizing, merging and splitting pages. Limit: the free tier has usage limits, and these tools rearrange pages without changing the words on them.
Sejda
Sejda is a browser-based PDF tool that can delete, reorder, split and merge pages on any computer with a current browser. Limit: use of the free tier is limited, with paid plans for heavier use.

PDF page questions
What's the difference between PDF page tools and a page editor?+
Page tools, like those in Preview, iLovePDF or Sejda, work on whole pages: delete, reorder, rotate, merge or split. A page editor such as Publish Media Software (PublishMedia) also opens each page so you can change the words, pictures and layout on it, then export everything as one PDF. Choose by whether the content needs to change too.
How do I put pages from two PDFs together?+
Use a tool that merges PDFs: on a Mac, Preview lets you drag pages from one PDF's sidebar into another's, and Adobe Acrobat (paid), iLovePDF and Sejda also combine files. PublishMedia doesn't merge PDFs, but once the pages are in one file you can open it there to edit and reorder them.
Can I rotate a page that came in sideways?+
Not in PublishMedia, which doesn't rotate PDF pages. Preview on a Mac rotates pages at no cost from the sidebar thumbnails, and paid Adobe Acrobat has rotate tools too. After rotating, open the PDF in PublishMedia if you also need to change what's on the pages.
Can I change a PDF from letter size to another size?+
Yes, on a paid plan. In PublishMedia, change the page size, then move and resize text boxes and pictures so they fit the new page. Check every page in Print Preview, because content placed for the old size may now sit too close to an edge or leave a gap.
How do I add a blank page in the middle of a PDF?+
In PublishMedia, open the PDF, add a new page, and move it to where it belongs between the existing pages; then fill it with text boxes, pictures, shapes or a table and export on a paid plan. Preview on a Mac can also insert an empty page, from Edit › Insert › Blank Page.
Will deleting a page change the other pages?+
No. Deleting a page removes only that page; the text and pictures on the remaining pages stay as they were, and the pages after it simply move up. If the document has page numbers typed into its text, update them by hand, since they're ordinary text rather than automatic numbers.
Can I pull out just a few pages to send someone?+
Yes, the long way: in PublishMedia, delete every page you don't want, then export a new PDF on a paid plan. Splitting one PDF into several files isn't a PublishMedia feature; Adobe Acrobat (paid), iLovePDF and Sejda have split tools that do it in one step.
Do page changes cost anything in PublishMedia?+
Yes, page changes are part of the paid plans. Viewing a PDF's pages costs nothing, but adding, deleting and reordering pages and exporting the result need All-Access at $99 a year or Monthly at $9.99. If deleting or reordering is all you need and you have a Mac, Preview is the no-cost choice.
