How to Delete PDF Pages
Need to remove unwanted pages from a PDF? Here's how to delete PDF pages online for free — no uploads, no software, no sign-up.
Why delete pages from a PDF?
PDFs often contain extra pages you don't need — blank scanned pages, cover sheets, disclaimers, or duplicate content. Removing these pages makes your document cleaner and reduces file size.
How to delete PDF pages online (free)
Go to the Delete PDF Pages tool. Upload your PDF. You'll see thumbnail previews of all pages. Click each page you want to remove (selected pages show a checkmark). Click 'Delete Selected' — the processing happens in your browser. Download the cleaned PDF.
Can I undo a deletion?
No — the tool creates a new PDF with the remaining pages. Always keep a backup of the original file. If you make a mistake, simply re-upload the original and try again.
What happens if I delete all pages?
You'll get an empty PDF with 0 pages. The tool will still generate a download, but the file won't open in most readers. Make sure to leave at least one page.
Does deleting pages reduce file size?
Yes, proportionally. Removing pages with large images or embedded content will significantly reduce the file size. The remaining pages are copied without re-encoding.
Is deleting PDF pages safe?
Yes. The tool runs entirely in your browser. Your file never leaves your device. No uploads, no servers, no logs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I delete non-consecutive pages?
Yes. Click any combination of pages — they don't need to be in order. Each selected page will be removed from the output.
Does this work on scanned PDFs?
Yes. Deleting pages works on any PDF, including scanned documents.
What if the page thumbnails don't load?
Thumbnail rendering uses PDF.js in your browser. If thumbnails don't appear, try a different browser or check that JavaScript is enabled.
