You can use page thumbnails in the Navigation pane to copy or move pages within a document, and copy pages
between documents.
When you drag a page thumbnail in the Page Thumbnails panel of the Navigation pane, a bar appears near other
thumbnails, indicating the position in which it will appear in the PDF. This bar appears at the bottom or top when the
thumbnails are in a single column, or to the left or right if more than one column of thumbnails is displayed.
