How to delete pdf pages in 4 steps
- 1
Add your PDF
Drop one PDF onto the box, or click it to browse. A thumbnail of every page is drawn in your browser so you can see what you are deleting.
- 2
Mark the pages to remove
Click a thumbnail and it turns red with a bin icon — that page is on its way out. Click it again to keep it.
- 3
Or type the page numbers
For long documents type them instead, as 1-3, 7. The typed list and the thumbnails always show the same selection, so you can mix both.
- 4
Delete and download
Check the kept and removed counts, press Delete, then save the trimmed PDF. Your original file is untouched.
Removing pages without handing over the document
The pages people most want to delete tend to be the ones they least want to upload: the covering fax sheet on a medical report, the internal pricing appendix in a proposal, the blank scans at the end of a signed contract. This tool never sends the file anywhere. The document is read, previewed and rebuilt inside your browser, so nothing is queued on a server waiting to be cleaned up later.
Two ways to choose the pages
Clicking thumbnails is the quicker route when you have to look at a page to know whether it should go — duplicate scans, upside down sheets, separator pages. Typing a range like 1-3, 7 is better when you already know the numbers, and much better on a two hundred page document where scrolling for each click is tedious. The two stay in sync: click a thumbnail and the typed list updates, type a range and the matching thumbnails turn red.
What the trimmed file keeps
The pages you keep are copied whole rather than reprinted, so selectable text stays selectable, embedded fonts stay embedded and images keep their original resolution. Page size and orientation are preserved page by page, so a landscape chart in the middle of a portrait report survives as it was. Bookmarks and interactive form fields are the exception — they are properties of the document as a whole and are not carried into the rebuilt file. The file on your disk is never modified; you download a new copy and can always go back to the original.
Delete PDF Pages — frequently asked questions
Is deleting PDF pages here really free?+
Yes. No account, no trial, no page limit and no watermark on the file you download. The tool is supported by unobtrusive advertising on the page.
Are my files uploaded to a server?+
No. The thumbnails are drawn and the pages are removed inside your browser, so the PDF never leaves your computer. You can disconnect from the internet once the page has loaded and the tool still works.
Can I delete every page?+
No, and the button stays disabled if you try. A PDF file has to contain at least one page to be a valid document, so leave one page unselected. If you wanted rid of the whole thing, delete the file itself.
Does anything get lost besides the pages I chose?+
The kept pages come across untouched, but two document level things do not survive: bookmarks — the outline pane some readers show — and interactive form fields, which belong to the document rather than to individual pages. This is a real limitation of the tool. If your PDF depends on either, work on a copy and keep the original.
Why does a long PDF take a while to show thumbnails?+
Every page is genuinely rendered to an image on your own device, which costs a fraction of a second each. Previews arrive in batches with a progress bar, and you can start typing page numbers straight away instead of waiting for the last thumbnail.
Can I remove pages from a password protected PDF?+
Only if the password is removed first. A PDF that needs a password to open cannot be read by the browser, so unlock it in the app that created it and then come back.
