Help... I cannot find the Organize Pages tool (Acrobat DC)

[Guest]

I recently installed Acrobat DC (I was using Acrobat X) on a Windows laptop. I have tried editing documents to remove or extract pages, and cannot seem to find a way. It worked fine with Acrobat X. I have looked at different tutorials and posts, and I need to stop at step 1 "In the right hand pane, select the Organize Pages tool", as I do not see these tools, only Comment and Fill & Sign.

I've checked the document properties on multiple documents (including one that was provided on a tutorial) and this is what I see:

Anyone knows how to fix this ? It would seem that Acrobat DC is selecting the restrictions automatically ?

Many thanks in advance !

Sounds like you're using the free Reader, not Acrobat. Keep in mind that it

is now (confusingly) called Acrobat Reader...

Thanks... this is what I'm using:

So it seems it's the free version ?

As you can see, this is Acrobat Reader, not Acrobat... Did you purchase Acrobat? If so, did you install it?

[Guest]

In fact it was installed by our IT team. I guess they got the free version. I just assumed that because it worked with X it would work with this one as well : (

I'll ask them if they can buy Acrobat.

Thanks a lot !

It will work if you get Acrobat DC... It was not possible to do that with Reader X and it's not possible to do it with Reader DC (unless you pay for it).

Hi dluga,

Please open the PDF in Acrobat DC to use the Organize PDF tool.

I am not able to locate the Organize option in Acrobat Reader DC - I was there prior to downloading Adobe Creative Cloud...?  Any Intel would be great

This is not available in Acrobat Reader.

Use Adobe Acrobat.

Hi, can I delete/arrange pages with "File>Organizer" in Acrobat Pro 9?

Thanks and Regards.

Oh, that's old software. In Acrobat 9, Organizer doesn't do anything like that. Instead, click on Pages (perhaps an icon) in the strip at the left hand side. You should see thumbnails for the document. Now you can use Drag & Drop to reorder, and right click to Delete and do other things. This is almost the same as "Organize pages", which was a name introduced after version 11.
