Example

Input: A 5-page PDF with pages 2 and 4 selected for deletion

Result: A 3-page PDF made of original pages 1, 3 and 5 (Pages Deleted 2, Remaining Pages 3)

The pages you did not select are copied into a new document in their original order.

  1. Upload the PDF file from which you want to remove pages.
  2. Review the grid of numbered page buttons, one for every page in the document.
  3. Click each unwanted page number to mark it for deletion - selected pages are highlighted in red. Even Pages and Odd Pages select many at once.
  4. Review the selection summary to make sure you have not accidentally marked pages you want to keep.
  5. Click the Delete button (for example "Delete 3 Pages") to generate a new PDF with the marked pages removed.
  6. Download the cleaned PDF file containing only the pages you chose to keep.

Removing Unwanted Pages From a PDF

PDF Page Delete removes the pages you choose from a PDF and gives you a new file with the rest. Click the page numbers you want gone, check the summary, and click Delete.

It is handy for blank pages in a scan, a cover sheet you do not need, or an appendix nobody will read. Every page gets a numbered button. Selected pages turn red, and a line under the grid tells you how many pages will be deleted and how many will remain. Quick buttons select all pages, clear the selection, or pick the even or odd pages, which helps with scans that include blank backs. You cannot delete every page, because a PDF needs at least one.

The tool does not show page thumbnails. So open the file in your viewer first and note the page numbers you want to remove.

The pages you keep are copied into a new document in their original order, with the same text, fonts and image quality. Your original file is left untouched, and the new file is named with -modified at the end. Bookmarks are not carried over to the new file. Files up to 50 MB are processed in your browser.

If it is easier to list the pages you want to keep, use PDF Split instead. To make the result smaller, run it through PDF Compress.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find the blank pages in your PDF viewer and note their numbers. Upload the file, click those numbers so they turn red, and click Delete. If every second page is a blank back side, the Even Pages button selects pages 2, 4, 6 and so on in one click.
Yes. Click any mix of page numbers, for example 2, 5 and 9 in a 10-page file. The summary shows how many will be deleted and how many will remain. The kept pages are joined in their original order.
No. The tool builds a new PDF without the selected pages and leaves your original file as it was. You download the new version separately, so you can go back to the original at any time. The new file name ends in -modified.
Usually, yes, especially if the removed pages held images. The saving is not always in proportion to the page count, because fonts and other resources shared by several pages stay in the file. The results show the original and new sizes so you can compare.
