Organize PDF Pages

Foxit PDF Editor comes with a built in functionality to insert PDF files & split one PDF into various small single & multiple page PDF files according to page numbers as well as page range. You can also rearrange pages, add page marks (such as header & footer) to PDFs, and more. During page organization, pages can be displayed in Thumbnail View mode (in which all the panels are hidden). You can use the page organization commands in the Organize tab or the options in the context menu to organize pages. When moving your mouse over a page thumbnail, you can additionally find the floating buttons to rearrange pages.

                  Crop Pages

                  The Crop Pages feature allows you to adjust the visible page area, define page boxes for easier printing, and resize pages to make them consistent across the whole document.

If you are not satisfied with the results, you can uncheck the option or click Reset to restore the white margins, and define page boxes with your custom values.

                        • BleedBox: Define the clipping path when the page is printed professionally to allow for paper trimming and folding. Printing marks may fall outside the bleed area.
                        • Set to Zero: Restore all the margins to zero. For cropped pages, you can click this option to un-crop them and re-display the full contents of the pages.
                        • Reset: Reset all the margins to the dimensions of the cropping area (if any). If you did not select the cropping area before, clicking Reset will reset all the margins to zero.

                        Flatten Pages

                        The Flatten Pages feature can make annotations and form fields in the PDF file become part of objects of the PDF pages.

                        • Choose Organize >Flatten.

                        Tip: After flattening, the annotations and form fields are converted to text objects or shape objects that can only be edited by using the editing tools. However, some elements may be unavailable after flattening, including the text in the pop-up notes, file attachments that are attached as annotations, multimedia items, etc. The flattening operation cannot be undone. If you want to retain a copy of the original PDF, make sure that you save the new document using Save As rather than Save.

                        Reverse Pages

                        The Reverse Pages feature allows you to quickly reverse a range of pages that are created in reverse order, which is very useful when adjusting the page numbers of scanned PDF files.

                        • Click Organize >Reverse, or right-click a page thumbnail in the Pages panel or Thumbnail window and choose Reverse Pages.
                        • In the Reverse Page Order dialog box, specify a range of pages you want to reverse. If you need to apply the operation to even/odd pages or Landscape/Portrait pages within the specified page range, choose the corresponding option from the Subset drop-down list. Click OK to apply the operation.

                        Rearrange Pages based on the Bookmark Order

                        Sometimes you adjust the order of the bookmarks in your PDF document, and then you may need to rearrange the PDF pages according to the new bookmark order. To do this, you can use the Rearrange command in Foxit PDF Editor to quickly sort pages in just a few clicks.

                        • Choose Organize >Rearrange, or right-click any page thumbnail in the Pages panel (or the Thumbnail window) and choose RearrangePages.
                        • Click Yes in the pop-up confirmation dialog box to start the sorting process. (You can also select Don’t ask again to not show the dialog box next time you use the Rearrange feature.)
                        • After the process is complete, the pages in the PDF will be sorted based on the current bookmark order.

                        Notes:

                        • Generally, not every page contains a bookmark. The pages that do not contain any bookmarks are associated with the nearest bookmark in front of them in the document. Therefore, if you move a bookmark that is associated with multiple pages, the associated pages will be moved together after you rearrange pages using theRearrangecommand. For example, a document contains 5 pages (Page 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) and two bookmarks (Bookmark1 on Page 1 and Bookmark2 on Page 4). If you move Bookmark1 after Bookmark2 and then rearrange pages in the document, the pages from Page 1 to Page 3 will be moved together after Page 5, while Page 4 and Page 5 will be moved in front of Page 1.
                        • For a document whose first pages (one or more) are not associated with any bookmark, if you rearrange pages after moving any bookmark of the document, those pages will be moved to the end of the document.
                        • For a page that contains more than one bookmark, if you move them to different locations and rearrange pages in the document, the page will be moved according to the location of the first bookmark of the page. For example, a document contains 3 pages (Page 1, 2, and 3) and three bookmarks (Bookmark1 on Page 1, and Bookmark2 and Bookmark3 on Page 3). If you move Bookmark2 to the location before Bookmark1 and then rearrange pages, Page 3 will be moved to be the first page of the document.

                        Manage Headers and Footers

                        Foxit PDF Editor allows you to add and update headers and footers which include dates, page numbers or custom text throughout a PDF file.

                              Bates numbering is used in the legal, medical, and business fields to place identifying numbers and/or date/time-marks on images and documents. These numbers may be solely numeric or may contain a combination of letters and numbers. It is a unique serial number attached to every page of a document collected and is also a method of indexing legal documents for easy identification and retrieval.

                                Change the Format of Page Numbering

                                If your PDF file contains front matter likes document cover and copyright page, the page numbers on the document pages may not match the page numbers shown below the page thumbnails in the Pages panel or Thumbnail window. Foxit PDF Editor enables users to change the format of page numbering displayed in PDF viewers to meet different needs.

                                To change the format of page numbering, please do as follows:

                                • Click Organize >Format Page Numbers, or right-click a page thumbnail in the Pages panel or Thumbnail window and choose Format Page Numbers.
                                • Specify the following settings in the Page Numbers dialog box.
                                  • In the Pages group, specify the page range that you want to number. If you have already selected page thumbnail(s), the Selected option is checked by default, which allows you to format the page numbers for the selected pages only. You can check the All Pages option to format the page numbers for all the pages in the current PDF file, or enter page numbers in the Pages From field to specify the page range.
                                  • In the Numbering group, choose one of the numbering formats:
                                    • Begin new section: This option is checked by default, which allows you to start a new numbering sequence. Choose the section numbering style from the Style drop-down list. And then specify a prefix and starting page number, if necessary. While setting the numbering, you can preview the results in the Sample area at the bottom of the dialog box.
                                    • Extend numbering used in preceding section to selected pages: Continue to use the numbering sequence from the preceding section without interruption to the selected pages.

                                    Tips:
                                    1. The Format Page Numbers command in the Organize tab only changes the logic page numbers that are shown below the page thumbnails in the Pages panel or Thumbnail window. If you want to change the physical page numbers, please choose Organize > Header & Footer. For more information, please refer to “Manage Headers and Footers”.

                                    2. To display the customized page numbering in Foxit PDF Editor, please make sure that the Use logical page numbers option is enabled in the File tab (or Foxit PDF Editor in the menu bar) > Preferences > Page Display.
