Remove Pages from a PDF — Delete What You Do Not Need

Delete blank pages, cover sheets, adverts or anything else from a PDF and keep the rest exactly as it was. It runs in your browser, so the document stays private.

Quick answer: Open the page organiser, mark the pages you want to delete, remove them in one pass and download the rebuilt PDF. The pages you keep are copied unchanged, and nothing is uploaded.

Removing versus extracting

They arrive at similar places from opposite directions, and one is far less work depending on what you want. Removing is right when most of the document should stay and a few pages should go — a scanned bundle with blank versos, a report with an internal cover sheet, a statement with a page of small print you do not need to circulate.

Extracting is right when you only want a handful of pages out of something long. Pulling three pages from a two-hundred-page manual by removing the other hundred and ninety-seven would be absurd; extraction names the three you want instead.

What happens to the pages you keep

They are copied across as they are rather than re-rendered, so text stays real text you can search and select, vector graphics stay sharp at any zoom, and images keep their original resolution. The document is rebuilt around the shorter page list, which means page numbering shifts — worth remembering if the file has a contents page that refers to specific numbers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Open the page organiser, find the page you want gone, remove it, and download the rebuilt document. Everything else is kept exactly as it was and your original file is left untouched on your device.
Yes. Mark every page you want to drop and remove them in one pass, rather than repeating the process once per page.
No. The remaining pages are copied across unchanged, so their text stays selectable and their images keep their resolution. Only the page numbering shifts, because the document is genuinely shorter.
Usually, though not always in proportion. If the pages you removed carried large images the saving is substantial; if the bulk of the file is fonts and resources shared across the whole document, less so.
Not from the new file — the page is gone from it. Your original PDF is untouched, so keep it until you are sure, and re-do the removal from the original if you change your mind.
No. The document is opened and rewritten inside your browser, so confidential files never leave your device.
