Files never leave your device

Delete PDF pages — remove pages without uploading the file

Type the page numbers you don't want, and download the same document without them. The removal happens on your device; the PDF never touches a server.

Remove pages, keep your privacy

The pages people delete from PDFs are usually the sensitive ones — the page with the account number, the duplicate scan of an ID, the internal note that shouldn't go to the client. Uploading that document to a web server in order to remove a page defeats the point. This tool works the other way around: the page-removal engine loads into your browser, your PDF stays on your machine, and the cleaned copy is generated right where the original lives.

How deleting pages works here

Add your file and the tool reports its page count on the spot. Type the pages to remove using numbers and ranges — 2, 5-7, 12 — and click once. Under the hood, the tool builds a fresh PDF containing every page except the ones you listed, copied over exactly as they are: no re-rendering, no quality loss, no reflowing. The output downloads as a new file, so your original stays intact on disk in case you change your mind.

Two guard rails are built in. Numbers beyond the document's length are simply ignored, so a typo can't break the run. And if your list would remove every page, the tool stops and says so — an empty PDF helps nobody.

Common reasons to delete PDF pages

  • Blank scanner pages — double-sided scanning of single-sided originals leaves a blank after every real page.
  • Before sharing — strip pricing sheets, internal comments, or personal data pages from a document heading outside.
  • Fixing assembled files — a merge picked up the wrong appendix? Delete its pages instead of redoing the whole merge.
  • Meeting size limits — fewer pages means a smaller file; pair with the compressor when a portal cap is strict.

If you need the opposite — keeping a few pages rather than removing a few — the Split PDF tool extracts a range directly, which is faster when the keep-list is short.

Frequently asked questions

Is my PDF uploaded when I delete pages?

No. The entire operation runs in your browser tab: the file is read locally, rebuilt locally without the pages you listed, and downloaded locally. Check your browser's Network panel — no file leaves your device.

How do I write which pages to delete?

Use numbers and ranges separated by commas: 2, 5-7, 12 deletes page two, pages five through seven, and page twelve. Page numbers refer to position in the PDF, matching what your viewer shows.

Does deleting pages change the quality of the rest?

No. The remaining pages are copied into the new file untouched — identical resolution, fonts, and dimensions. Nothing is re-rendered or recompressed.

Is my original file modified?

Never. The tool produces a new download named after your file with '-edited' added. The original on your disk stays exactly as it was, so a mistake costs nothing.

Can I delete pages from a scanned PDF?

Yes — scanned PDFs are just PDFs whose pages are images. List the pages, and they're removed the same way. Deleting scanner blanks is one of the most common uses of this tool.

Why can't I delete pages from a locked PDF?

Password-protected PDFs are encrypted, and no tool can rebuild them without the password. Open the file with its password in your PDF viewer, save an unlocked copy, and edit that copy here.
