Move PDF page to a different position

  • 772

My question is simple: is there a simple tool that can allow me to move a page or pages of a pdf to a different position? Say page 2 to move to position (page) 55 or something like that. Currently I am using PDF Mod but it is painfully slow for big pdfs. Any recommendations? Thanks!

    Look at pdfshuffler. It's available in the repositories:

    $ apt show pdfshuffler
