Delete PDF Pages

Delete or keep — the same job from two directions

Taking out a blank scan at the end is a deletion. Pulling three pages out of a 60-page report is easier to describe the other way round: keep 12-14. Both are here, because which one feels natural depends entirely on how you thought about the task.

Page numbers can be single values, ranges, or both: 1, 3, 5-7 is valid. Numbers past the end of the document are ignored rather than treated as an error.

Nothing is re-rendered

The pages you keep are copied into a new document as they are, so text stays selectable and searchable and images are not re-compressed. Only the page list changes.

How to use it

1. Drop your PDF onto the box above.
2. Choose whether to delete the listed pages or keep only those.
3. Type the page numbers, for example 1, 3, 5-7.
4. Download the edited PDF.

Usable on a work computer

Plenty of workplaces block file uploads to outside websites, to keep contracts and customer records from leaving the building. On those machines the usual online converters simply fail.

This one has no upload to block. Whether your organisation permits a particular site is still its own call, so check with your IT team if you handle regulated material.

Why this is built this way

Files that pass through someone else's server can be logged, cached, retained after the promised deletion window, or exposed in a breach. Contracts, ID scans, medical records and private photos are exactly the files people most often have to convert, and exactly the ones that should not be handed to a stranger's machine.

It is also why there is no file size limit, no daily quota, and no account. Those restrictions exist to control server costs. With no server in the loop, there is nothing to ration.

Questions

Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?

No. The edit happens in your browser and the file never leaves your device. You can confirm it in the Network tab of your developer tools, or by turning off your Wi-Fi after the first use and editing again.

How do I write the page numbers?

Separate values with commas and use a hyphen for ranges: 1, 3, 5-7 means pages 1, 3, 5, 6 and 7. Spaces are ignored.

What if I remove every page?

The tool stops and tells you, rather than handing back an empty file. Adjust the page list and it rebuilds straight away.

Can it edit a password protected PDF?

No. A locked PDF cannot be opened without its password, and the tool will say so instead of producing a damaged file.
