Delete pages from a PDF
Tap ✕ on any page thumbnail to remove it, then save a clean copy. Private and free.
What is the Delete Pages tool?
This tool removes unwanted pages from a PDF: blank pages a scanner added, an outdated version of a form, or a private page you don’t want to share. Every page appears as a thumbnail — tap ✕ on the ones to remove, save, and download a clean copy. The original file on your device stays untouched.
Key features
- Remove any number of pages with one tap each
- Visual thumbnails — never delete the wrong page blindly
- Also reorder remaining pages in the same session
- New PDF contains only kept pages; removed content is truly gone
- No upload, no account, no watermark
How do I use it?
- Drop the PDF that has pages you want gone.
- Click the red ✕ on each unwanted page’s thumbnail.
- Optionally reorder the remaining pages with the arrows.
- Click Save & download — the clean PDF is saved to your device.
Is it safe to delete PDF pages online?
Yes. Deletion happens by rebuilding the document on your device with only the pages you kept — powered by Mozilla’s PDF.js rendering in your browser. Because there is no upload, a page you removed for privacy reasons never existed anywhere except on your own machine.
Tips for the best result
- Blank scanner pages usually sit at even positions — thumbnails make them easy to spot.
- Removing most of a document? Extracting the range you want with Split may be faster.
- Your original file is never modified — you always download a new copy.
- Double-check the count label before saving so you keep the pages you meant to.
Frequently asked questions
How do I remove one page from a PDF for free?
Drop the file here, click ✕ on that page’s thumbnail and press Save & download. It takes about ten seconds.
Can the deleted page be recovered from the new PDF?
No. The new file is built only from the pages you kept, so deleted pages are not embedded or hidden in it.
Can I delete multiple pages at once?
Yes — click ✕ on as many thumbnails as you like before saving; they are all removed in one go.
Will deleting pages change the quality of the rest?
No. Remaining pages are copied exactly as they were.
Does this work for scanned PDFs?
Yes — scanned pages show as thumbnails just like any other page and can be removed the same way.
Is it safe for confidential files?
Yes. The document never leaves your device, so removing sensitive pages here is as private as doing it offline.
