PDF page reordering changes the sequence of pages in a document without affecting the content of any page. The page tree structure of the PDF is modified to reflect the new order, but each page's content — text, images, formatting — remains unchanged. The result is the same document with pages in the order you specified.
Use cases include:
Fixing page order in a scanned document.
Rearranging sections in a merged PDF.
Moving the table of contents to the front.
Reordering chapters in a document.
Fixing a PDF where pages were inserted in the wrong order.

Page reordering modifies the PDF's page tree structure.
A PDF's page tree is a hierarchical structure that defines the order pages are presented. Each page node references the page's content stream.
Reordering changes the sequence of page node references in the page tree — the content streams themselves are unchanged.
The result is a valid PDF where the same pages appear in the new order.
