Reorder / reverse / duplicate pages (pdf-reorder)
Reorder / reverse / duplicate pages
Part of the Universal PDF Management & Creation Skill Repository. Category: PDF Management. Every skill is individually callable (INDIVIDUAL MODE) and may also be invoked automatically by the orchestrator (SYSTEM MODE).
When to use
Rearrange pages into any order.
Operations
- arbitrary order
- reverse
- duplicate
- subset ordering
Engine (what actually executes this)
universal_pdf/core.manipulate:reorder_pdf
All heavy lifting is done on disk / one page at a time by the shared engine — never by loading the document into an LLM context.
Tools & graceful degradation
- Preferred tool: PyMuPDF
- Fallback: pypdf
If the preferred backend is unavailable the skill transparently uses the fallback or reports a documented limitation. It never reports success when an operation did not actually happen.
Validation (this skill attaches checks to its Outcome)
page_count == len(order)
