Delete Pages from PDF
Click the pages you don’t need, or type their numbers, and download the PDF without them. Your original file isn’t changed.
A pricing page left inside a proposal, a draft cover sheet, someone else’s details at the back of a scan: one page in the wrong place can cost more than the minute it takes to take it out. This tool lets you delete pages from a PDF by looking at them. Your document appears as a grid of thumbnails. Click the pages you don’t want, or type numbers such as 1-3, 5, 8-10, and download a new PDF without them. Your original file stays as it is, and the work happens in your browser, so the file isn’t uploaded.
Quick Answer
To delete pages from a PDF online for free, open your file, click the pages you want to remove (or type numbers like 1-3, 5), check the counter that shows how many pages will remain, and press “Delete pages.” Then download the new PDF. The original file isn’t changed.
How to Delete PDF Pages
Open Your PDF
Drag it onto the page or press “Select file.” A thumbnail of every page appears. A password-protected file asks for its password first.
Mark the Pages
Click a page to mark it. It dims and shows a cross. Hold Shift and click to mark a run of pages, or use the Odd pages and Even pages buttons. You can also type ranges such as 1-3, 5, 8-10. The eye button enlarges a page and lets you mark it from there. Clicks and typed numbers stay in sync, and the counter shows how many pages will be deleted and how many will remain.
Delete and Download
Press “Delete pages.” The new file is named after your original with “_edited” added. You can change the name part in Advanced options, before or after deleting. Then download it.
Key Features
See Before You Delete
Thumbnails show every page, and an enlarged preview has Previous and Next buttons, arrow-key navigation and swipe on touch screens, with a button to mark or unmark the page you are looking at. In PDFs of more than 300 pages, thumbnails load as you scroll.
Pick Pages Your Way
Click pages, Shift-click a range, or type ranges separated by commas, semicolons or spaces. Typing and clicking update each other as you go.
Odd and Even in One Click
Mark every first, third, fifth page, or every second, fourth, sixth, then clear the selection if you change your mind.
Live Counter
It shows how many pages will be deleted and how many will remain. The tool won’t let you delete every page, so at least one always stays.
Page Numbers in Your Own Digits
Arabic-Indic, Persian and Urdu, Devanagari, Bengali and full-width digits are understood, along with the Arabic comma and different kinds of dash.
One Clean File
The new PDF is rebuilt from the pages that remain, in their original order. Your original is never modified.
Optional Title, Author and Subject
Type them in Advanced options and the new file carries them. Left empty, the new file doesn’t inherit the original’s details.
Password-Protected Files
The tool asks for the password. The new file is then made of page images, so its text can’t be selected.
Built for Big Files and Phones
A cancel button while it works, a warning before very large files, a compact layout on small screens and a dark mode.
Private by Design
Your PDF is read and rebuilt in your browser and never uploaded. The PDF libraries load from the internet when the page opens, and nothing is saved between visits.
What Is a PDF Page Deleter?
A PDF page deleter takes whole pages out of a PDF and gives you back a shorter file. You decide which pages go; nothing is picked for you. It works on pages, not on what is written on them: it can’t edit text or cover up a line, and whatever sits on the pages you keep stays exactly as it was. The file is rebuilt from the pages that remain rather than hiding the unwanted ones, so the deleted pages aren’t carried into the new file. Because your original is never modified, every run starts from the original, not from the last result.
When Would You Use This?
A proposal is ready to send, but a page of internal pricing or notes is still inside. Mark it, check the “will remain” count, and send the rest.
A form accepts at most 10 pages and your PDF has 13. Type the three pages to delete, and the counter shows 10 remaining before you commit.
A report you downloaded opens with an advert page and ends with a sign-up form, and you don’t want to keep or forward either.
A bilingual document alternates one page in each language and you only need one. Use Even pages or Odd pages, check a few in the preview, and delete every second page in one go.
A scan of a mixed stack picked up a sheet that belongs to a different file. Find it in the thumbnails and delete it.
A report still carries the draft cover sheet and the revision-history page from earlier versions. Delete both before it goes to the client.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I delete one page, or several pages, from a PDF?
Open the PDF, then click the page, or type its number, such as 7. For several pages, type ranges like 2-4, 9 or Shift-click a run, then press “Delete pages.” You can mix clicking and typing, and the counter shows what will remain before you commit.
Can I undo it if I pick the wrong pages?
Your original file is never changed, so nothing is lost. Press “Clear selection,” mark the pages again and run it again. Each run starts from your original, not from the previous result, and if you change the selection after a result, the download button goes away so you can’t grab an out-of-date file by mistake.
Will the pages I keep stay the same?
Usually, yes: they’re copied across unchanged and their text stays selectable. The original’s Title, Author and Subject aren’t copied, so type new ones in Advanced options if you need them. Bookmarks aren’t carried over, and form data may not be either. For a password-protected PDF, and for a file the tool can’t copy page by page, the new file holds page images instead, so text can’t be selected and the file may be larger. The tool tells you when that happens.
Is a deleted page really gone from the new file?
The new file is built only from the pages that remain, so the deleted pages aren’t copied into it. This is page deletion, not redaction: anything printed on the pages you keep stays there. For a sensitive document, open the new file and check it before you send it.
Is my PDF uploaded, and how large can it be?
It isn’t uploaded; the work happens in your browser. On a computer you can open files up to 1 GB, and on a phone or tablet up to 300 MB. You’ll see a warning above 250 MB on a computer and 100 MB on a phone, because the browser has to hold the whole file in memory. If your device runs out of memory, try a computer. The tool works on one PDF at a time.
