Delete Pages from PDF

Remove the pages you do not want and keep everything else. Runs in your browser — the file is never uploaded.

Files are processed on your device and never uploaded

Documents arrive with pages nobody wants. A scanner adds a blank sheet every time it catches two pieces of paper at once. A downloaded report opens with a cover page and closes with three pages of legal boilerplate. A contract carries an appendix that should not go to the other side. This tool shows you the whole document as thumbnails so you can pick off exactly those pages and keep the rest intact.

Everything happens on your device. The pages you remove are gone from the copy you download, and the original file on your disk is never touched — so if you cut the wrong page, you simply start again from the file you still have.

How to delete pages from a PDF

  1. Add your PDF

    Drop the file onto the page or click to browse. Every page appears as a thumbnail.

  2. Click the pages to remove

    Selected pages are highlighted in red so it is obvious what is about to go. Click again to unselect.

  3. Delete

    Press the delete button. Nothing is removed until you do, and the tool will not let you delete every page.

  4. Download

    Save the trimmed PDF. Your original stays exactly as it was.

Why use this Delete PDF Pages tool

See what you are deleting

Removing page 7 of a document you cannot see is guesswork. Thumbnails mean you delete the blank page, not the one after it.

Red means gone

Selected pages are marked in red rather than the usual blue, so a destructive selection never looks like an ordinary one.

Nothing is uploaded

The document is read and rewritten inside your browser. Nothing reaches a server, which matters when the pages you are cutting are the confidential ones.

Everything else is untouched

Remaining pages keep their original content, resolution, orientation and page size. Only the pages you picked are dropped.

Changed your mind?

One click switches to keeping only the pages you selected instead of removing them — no need to start over on another page.

Free, no account

No sign-up, no daily limit, no watermark added to the result.

Frequently asked questions

Does deleting pages make the file smaller?

Usually yes, roughly in proportion to what you removed — the deleted pages and their images are dropped from the new file. Remaining pages are not re-compressed, so their quality is unchanged.

Can I get a deleted page back?

Not from the downloaded file, but your original is never modified. Reload the page, add the original again, and start over. This is why we never write over the file you opened.

What if I select every page?

The tool stops you. A PDF with zero pages can technically be written but will not open in any reader, so at least one page must survive.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. The page previews and the deletion both run in your browser using your own processor. Nothing is transmitted — you can watch your browser's network tab and see for yourself.

How large a PDF can I work with?

Up to 50 MB. Documents up to 300 pages show full thumbnails; longer ones still work but display numbered placeholders instead of pictures, so your browser does not run out of memory.

Do links, bookmarks and form fields survive?

Content and annotations on the remaining pages come across. Links pointing at a page you deleted will no longer go anywhere, and document-level bookmarks are not preserved.

Can I keep only the selected pages instead?

Yes — there is a one-click option to invert the operation, or use the dedicated extract pages tool if that is what you came for.

Can I delete pages from a password-protected PDF?

Files with permission restrictions but no open password usually work. A PDF that asks for a password before it opens cannot be previewed or edited here — remove the password in your PDF reader first.
