Moving pages option causes pages to shift

Hi,

 

Hope everyone is doing great!

 

I am working on a 500 page graphic oriented book. After completing the latout, client requested to move 2 chapters forward and one to before last chapter. I have used move pages option to perform these movements.

 

But, since then unexpectedly, few pages shifting from one of these chapters. Adjusting these shifted pages causing the another chapter pages to shift. 

 

I know, i couldn't get the actual file here as i have signed NDA. But, i hope there is something that helps to fix it. 

 

Thank you for your time.

Correct answer SJRiegel

When you move an odd number of pages, it will change the positions of all of the following pages. 
In this example I moved three pages - see how some of the L and R have switched.

Do the moved chapters each have an even number of pages?

No. One chapter has even and other two or not.

 

Does it have to do anything with the pages shift?

Ok. I will try to move them with even pages and check and come back. Thank you for your time.


I tried working only with even page movement. Unfortunately due to multiple movements earlier , there is one or pages still jumbling. Luckily i had a previous version from which i have manually copied them again in the required order. And moved the even them properly. Finally, it works. Thank you for the knowledge.
