Delete Pages from PDF

Remove unwanted PDF pages privately

PDFs often include blank scans, duplicate pages, cover sheets, instructions or sections that do not belong in the version you need to send. This delete PDF pages tool creates a clean copy by removing the page numbers you list. It is useful for preparing forms, trimming scanned packets, removing accidental blank pages or sharing only the material that is relevant to a recipient.

Unlike many online PDF editors, this page does not upload your document for processing. The browser reads the source PDF with pdf-lib, copies every page except the ones you selected into a new document, and downloads that new file. Your original PDF remains unchanged on your device, so you can safely experiment with page lists and keep the master copy for future edits.

Flexible page selection

You can delete one page, several individual pages or continuous ranges. For example, 2,5-7 removes page 2 and pages 5 through 7. Page numbers start at 1, just as they do in most PDF readers. If your document has a title page, table of contents or other front matter, double-check the actual PDF page number before deleting. Printed page labels inside a document are sometimes different from the file's internal page order.

Before sharing the result

After downloading the cleaned PDF, open it and quickly review the page order. Removing pages can affect references such as "see next page" or page numbers printed in headers and footers. If you are preparing legal, financial or official documents, keep the untouched original and use the edited copy only for the specific sharing purpose. For sensitive files, browser-side deletion is a practical privacy improvement because the document contents never need to leave your computer.

This also helps when you receive a combined packet but only need to forward a smaller, audience-specific version. Removing extra instructions, separators or blank scan backs can make the final file easier to understand while reducing its size.
