Since the last IOS update, every time I create a pdf the order of the pages is completely random and I have to manually arrange the pages.
This never happened in the past with IOS14 where the pages are organized based on their number.
Does anyone have the same problem? Any suggestion on how to solve it?
Thanks in advance

Hello and welcome to the Apple Support Communities, horacio101.
It sounds like you've noticed an issue with PDFs after updating your iPad. We'd like to see how we can help. If you haven't done so already, make sure you're running the latest version of iPadOS: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. It's also a good idea to check for available app updates: How to manually update apps on your Apple device.
If the issue persists, reply with more information on what you mean when you say the pages are organized based on their number.
Take care.
Thanks for the reply, horacio101.
The next step would be to contact Apple Support directly. They can be reached here: Get Support, or by calling the most applicable phone number listed here: Contact Apple for support and service.
All the best!
Hi MVegas,
Thanks for your answer.
My IPadOS is updated and this is happening with Apple Files and I’m not sure how to update that.
I’ll try to explain the problem with an example.
Let’s say that I have 50 pictures I want to combine them in a pdf. They are numbered, for example from IMG_2301 to IMG_2351.
In the past, I used to select them all together and just click in “create PDF”, the resulting pdf file was a document including the 50 images in numeric order, starting with IMG_2301, IMG_2302, IMG_2303,….ending with IMG_2351.
Now, the resulting pdf file is created with a completely random order. So for example I end up with pdfs like IMG_2315, IMG_2343, IMG_2330, IMG_2312,…. Completely aleatory. Actually, if I try twice to create the same pdf using the same pictures, the order generated is completely different, so I’m still not sure what is the criteria the system is following.
I hope it helps to clarify the problem.
Best,
