How to delete pages from a PDF

Step 1

Open your PDF

The page count is shown so you can check your ranges against it.

Step 2

List the pages to remove

"2, 5-7" removes page two and pages five through seven. Everything you do not list is kept.

Step 3

Remove and download

Remaining pages keep their original order, and you are told how many were removed and how many remain.

What it handles

What the delete tool handles

01

Ranges or singles

"2, 5-7" removes page 2 and pages 5 through 7 in one pass.

02

Order preserved

Remaining pages keep their original sequence.

03

Guarded

Removing every page is refused rather than producing an empty document.

04

No upload

The file is read on your device and never sent anywhere.

Before you delete

Deleting is straightforward, with one caveat worth understanding.

Deleting is not redaction

The page is removed from the document, but if it held sensitive information, treat this as tidying rather than as a security measure. For genuine redaction, check the output in a reader that shows document metadata.

You cannot remove everything

Removing every page would leave an invalid document, so the tool refuses and says so rather than handing you a broken file.

It shrinks the file a little

Removed pages are not carried across, so the result is usually smaller. This is not a compression tool, though. The saving is proportional to what you cut.

Blank pages from scanning

Scanners often insert a blank page for the back of each sheet. Deleting the even-numbered pages is often exactly what is needed.

Questions

Can I remove every page?

No, that would leave an invalid document, so the tool refuses and tells you.

Does this shrink the file?

Usually a little, since removed pages are not carried across. It is not a compression tool though.

Is my original changed?

No. The tool produces a new file for download; the original on your disk is untouched.
