Remove specific pages from a PDF file entirely in your browser. No upload, no watermark.
How it works
The Delete PDF Pages tool lets you specify one or more page numbers to remove from a PDF, then downloads a new PDF containing all the remaining pages. The original file is not modified -- the tool reads it, creates a new document without the specified pages, and offers that as a download.
This is useful for removing blank pages that appear at the end of a scanned document, stripping a cover page before sharing, or removing confidential pages before distributing a report. All processing happens in your browser with no file upload.
Enter the pages to delete as a comma-separated list or a range. The output PDF maintains the original order of all remaining pages and preserves all content including fonts, images, and links.
Worked example
Remove blank filler pages from a scanned document
- Upload the scanned PDF.
- Identify the blank page numbers (e.g., pages 3, 7, and 12).
- Enter those page numbers in the deletion field.
- Click Delete and download the cleaned PDF.
A PDF with the blank pages removed, making it cleaner and smaller to share or archive.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Entering printed page numbers instead of PDF page numbers -- a document with Roman-numeral front matter will have different PDF page numbers than the numbers printed on the pages.
- Thinking the original file is modified -- it is never touched, so you can re-upload and try again if needed.
- Accidentally entering a page number that should be kept -- double-check the list before clicking Delete.
