How to delete pages from a PDF
This tool takes pages out of a PDF and keeps everything else as it was.
- Add your PDF. You will see how many pages it has.
- In Pages to remove, type the page numbers you want gone, for example 2, 5-7.
- Press Remove pages.
- Download the new file. It is named after your PDF with -edited at the end.
You can mix single pages and ranges in one go. A range like 10- removes page 10 and every page after it.
The order you type the numbers in does not matter, and typing a page twice is fine. Each page you list is removed once, and the pages that are left keep their original order.
Remove blank pages from a PDF
Scanners and phone scan apps often add an empty back side. Word files sometimes end with a blank page too. Open the PDF in any viewer, note the numbers of the blank pages, then type them here.
Because you write the numbers yourself, nothing is removed by guesswork. A page with only a faint stamp or a signature will not disappear by mistake.
If a scanned file has a blank page after every real page, the blank ones are usually the even pages. For a 10 page scan you would type 2, 4, 6, 8, 10. Check the result before you send it, in case one of the back sides had writing on it.
When you need to delete a PDF page online
- A form asks for a document of no more than a set number of pages.
- A downloaded challan or fee voucher has an extra copy page you don't need to upload.
- Your CV PDF has an old page that you forgot to delete in Word.
- A bank statement includes terms and conditions pages that make the file large.
- An assignment has a draft page you do not want the teacher to see.
Taking out unwanted pages also makes the file smaller. That can help a PDF fit under an upload limit without compressing it.
It is also the cleanest way to fix a merge that went wrong. If you joined two files and one page came in twice, remove the copy here instead of starting the merge again. The page count shown next to the file helps you check the result.
Tips before you remove pages
- Count carefully. Page numbers here are the position in the file, not the number printed on the page.
- You can't remove every page. At least one must stay.
- Your original file is not changed. If you remove the wrong page, just start again from the original.
- Locked PDFs need Unlock PDF first.
- To keep a few pages instead of removing many, Extract pages is simpler.
The pages that stay are copied without any change, so text stays sharp and links in the document keep working where they did before.
Private by design
Your PDF is edited in your browser and is never uploaded. That makes it a safe way to clean up personal papers, from result cards to property documents, on your own phone or computer. There is no sign-up, and the new file has no watermark or added page.
