How to delete pages from a PDF

Four steps, no account, nothing to install.

  1. Add your PDF

    Drop in the file — or several, if you're cleaning up more than one before combining them.

  2. Switch to Pages

    Flip the Files ⇄ Pages toggle and every page appears as its own thumbnail, so you can spot the ones that don't belong.

  3. Remove what you don't want

    Click on any page to drop it. Deleted the wrong one? Reset pages puts everything back.

  4. Merge and download

    Press Merge PDFs. With a single file that simply applies your changes — you download the same document, minus the pages you removed.

Removing the pages that don't belong

Most PDFs that need pages removed didn't start as PDFs — they came off a scanner. Auto-feeders love to add blank pages after every sheet, duplex scans pick up the empty backs of single-sided originals, and fax covers and separator sheets ride along into the file. The result is a 30-page document with 11 pages of nothing.

Because every page shows as a thumbnail, the blanks are easy to spot and one click each to remove. Nothing is final while you work: the running numbers update as you go, and Reset pages restores the original document if you change your mind. Your original file is never modified — you download a new PDF and keep the old one as it was.

It works just as well as a pre-merge cleanup. Add five documents, strip the cover sheets from each, and merge the survivors into one clean file in a single pass.

Deleting PDF pages — FAQ

Can I remove pages from a single PDF, without merging anything?

Yes. Add one file, switch to Pages, remove what you don't want, and press Merge PDFs — with a single file that simply applies your changes, and you download the same document minus the removed pages.

Is there an undo if I delete the wrong page?

Yes. The Reset pages button puts every page back in its original order, undoing all deletions and rotations in one go. Nothing is final until you press Merge PDFs and download.

Does deleting pages change my original file?

No. The file you selected stays exactly as it was. You download a new PDF without the removed pages, so the original is always there to fall back on.

How many pages can I delete?

As many as you like, as long as at least one page remains. There is no page limit, no watermark, and no charge, and the documents you work on are never stored, reviewed, or shared.
