No file upload. Text and images on retained pages are not rasterized. This is page editing, not secure redaction: do not use it to erase confidential data. Password-protected PDFs are unsupported; signatures may become invalid and links, bookmarks or forms may need checking after editing.

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your data is never uploaded, never stored, and never leaves your device.

Delete selected PDF pages or keep a chosen range, review the page selection, and save a new PDF on your device.

What happens to your data

Your PDF is processed locally and is not uploaded. Page removal is not a certified redaction process; review retained content and keep the original.

Remove unwanted sheets from a PDF without uploading the document. Select pages by number, range, odd or even position, or use Keep selected pages when it is easier to name the pages you want. Review the selected pages before saving a new copy; your source file is unchanged.

A page number here means its physical position in the file, starting at 1. A cover, a Roman-numbered contents section or a printed footer can make that different from the number written on the page. Use the local page preview to confirm the sheet before deleting it. The tool does not automatically recognise blank pages: you decide which pages to remove.

This is a focused alternative to printing a document again just to leave out a few sheets. The kept pages retain their original order and are copied as PDF pages, rather than deliberately converted into images. A document with selectable text does not need to become a scanned picture to lose its cover or an accidental duplicate.

How it works

The browser reads the PDF, checks the selection against the actual page count, and copies only the kept pages into a new PDF. A range such as 2, 4-6 refers to pages 2, 4, 5 and 6. Reversed ranges, missing pages and a selection that would remove every page are refused. Changing a file or selection clears the previous download so it cannot silently contain old settings.

Files are limited to 25 MB and 2,000 pages. Up to 60 page-selection buttons make short documents easy to review; ranges work for larger files. The optional page preview loads the renderer only when needed. Encrypted or damaged documents can be refused. Copying pages does not guarantee preservation of document-level bookmarks, attachments, forms or signatures. Always review the saved copy. Removing pages is not certified redaction: it does not inspect retained pages for hidden text, metadata or embedded data.

Worked example: remove a cover and an unwanted appendix

Input: A five-page PDF. Remove selection: 1, 4-5.
Result: A two-page PDF containing original pages 2 and 3, in that order.

In Keep selected pages mode, select 2-3 to obtain the same page sequence.

Common use cases

Frequently asked questions

How do I delete pages from a PDF?＋

Open the PDF, choose Remove selected pages and enter page numbers or ranges. Review the kept-page count and optional preview, create the edited PDF, then download and inspect the new copy.

Can I keep only selected PDF pages?＋

Yes. Switch to Keep selected pages and enter the pages you want, such as 2-5, 8. The saved document keeps their original order; entering 8, 2 does not reorder the file.

Can this delete blank PDF pages automatically?＋

No. A visually blank sheet can still contain important content or hidden objects. Preview it and select it yourself. The tool does not guess which pages are blank.

Why do the page numbers differ from the printed footer?＋

Selection uses the physical page position, starting at 1 for the first sheet. Covers, prefatory pages and printed numbering can use a different sequence. Check the preview before making the edit.

Is deleting a page the same as redacting confidential information?＋

No. This copies the kept pages into a new PDF. It is not a redaction audit and makes no guarantee about metadata, embedded objects or hidden information in retained content. Use a dedicated redaction workflow for sensitive disclosures.

Will forms, bookmarks and digital signatures survive?＋

Do not assume so. Document-level features may not transfer when pages are copied, and editing can invalidate a signature. Keep the original and check the result in the recipient's PDF reader.
