One PDF at a time

What is it?

This tool removes specific pages or a page range from a PDF and keeps everything else, entirely in your browser.

Formula Explanation

The page list you enter (like "1-3,5,8-10") is parsed into a set of page numbers to remove. Every page NOT in that set is copied — in its original order — into a new PDF, so the result is the original document minus exactly the pages you specified.

Example Calculation

On a 10-page PDF, entering 4,6-7 removes pages 4, 6, and 7, leaving a 7-page result with pages 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 9, and 10 in that order.

How to Use

  1. Click the upload area or drag and drop a PDF file onto it.
  2. Once loaded, the tool shows the total page count.
  3. Enter the pages or ranges you want to remove, e.g. 4,6-7.
  4. Click Delete Pages & Download to save the result.

Benefits

  • Removes unwanted pages (blank pages, cover sheets, ads) without installing any software.
  • Processes everything locally in your browser — files are never uploaded anywhere.
  • Accepts a flexible mix of single pages and ranges in one entry.

Use Cases

  • Removing a blank scanned page from a document.
  • Cutting an outdated cover page or table of contents before sharing a PDF.
  • Trimming an appendix or unwanted section out of a long report.

What Your Result Means

The downloaded file contains every page except the ones you specified, in their original order — this is the complement of the Split PDF tool, which keeps only the pages you list instead of removing them.

Tips

  • Use the page count shown after uploading to double-check your list before deleting.
  • If you want to keep only a few pages rather than remove a few, use the Split PDF tool instead — it's often quicker to specify what to keep.
  • Very large PDFs may take a few seconds to load and process.

Common Mistakes

  • Entering a page number higher than the PDF's total page count, which the tool rejects.
  • Trying to delete every page, which the tool blocks since at least one page must remain.
  • Trying to delete pages from a password-protected PDF, which this tool can't open.

FAQs

Are my PDF files uploaded to a server?

No, all processing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript — your files never leave your device.

What's the difference between this and Split PDF?

Split PDF keeps only the pages you list and discards the rest; Delete Pages does the opposite — it removes the pages you list and keeps everything else.

Can I delete pages from a password-protected PDF?

No, encrypted or password-protected PDFs can't be read by this tool — remove the password first using your PDF reader.

Can I delete every page?

No, the tool requires at least one page to remain in the output — reduce your delete list if you hit this error.

Files are read and processed locally in your browser and are never uploaded to a server.
