Reorder pages to match bookmarks?

I am working in PDFs that contain, at times, over 100 bookmarks.  It is often that a bookmark is moved up or down... Does Adobe DC allow me to "reorder" or "repaginate" the pages so that the bookmarks are in the same order as the pages?  Many viewing these pages use the bookmarks to work through the document... Having a page out of order increases the changes of something being missed.

I've seen plug-ins out there that can do this, but it seems like a function that should be available.

Acrobat allows you to do it manually, but there's no automatic command that does it for you, if that's what you mean.

As you saw, it can be done using a plugin, and possibly even by using a script.

I really don't understand why this feature is not just a basic fact of life in Adobe. I should be able to "set destination" and all of the pages magically reorient EXACTLY THE WAY I have organized my bookmarks. Why is this SO HARD FOR ADOBE TO DO?!

    Any suggestions of plug-ins?

    I've seen one on pdfscripting.com and evermap.com ...

    I think those are probably the only ones that exist.
