How to

How to use Remove Pages from PDF

  1. 1

    Add Your PDF

    Drag and drop your PDF file, or click to select it. The page box appears once it loads.

  2. 2

    Name the Pages to Remove

    Type them into the box, like 2, 5-7. Commas separate single pages and a dash covers a run.

  3. 3

    Download the New PDF

    Click the download button to save a new PDF file that excludes the pages you selected. Your original file is not modified.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Can I remove several pages at once?

Yes. Name as many as you like in one go — single pages, runs with a dash, or both together: 2, 5-7, 11.

Are the deleted pages recoverable?

In the new file you save, the pages are permanently gone. Your original file, however, remains unchanged on your device.

Does removing pages reduce the file size?

Removing pages may reduce the output size; the result depends on rewriting and compression.

What happens if I switch to another tab while it works?

The work pauses and picks up where it left off when you come back. Browsers throttle hidden tabs, so a job left running in the background would slow to a crawl or stall outright.

Background

Refining Your PDF Documents

Name the pages you no longer need and get one revised PDF back. Everything you did not name is copied through unchanged.

  • Remove pages to clean up a PDF. Get rid of blank pages, or remove draft sections and appendices not needed in the final version.
  • Before sharing, remove pages with sensitive information like personal data or internal notes. Ensure you only distribute what is necessary.
