Delete PDF Pages
Remove pages from a PDF and keep the rest untouched — no upload.
About this tool
Load a PDF, list the pages to remove ("1, 4-6, 12"), see the honest preview — deleting N, keeping M — and download. The kept pages are copied exactly, no re-rendering; your original file is never modified, and nothing is uploaded.
The pages people actually delete
The greatest hits: the blank page double-sided scanners insert after every sheet (delete the evens — "2, 4, 6…"), cover sheets before sharing, the fax header page that time forgot, terms-and-conditions padding, and the appendix nobody requested. Deleting is the inverse of extraction — use whichever way of naming pages is shorter: delete "3" versus keep "1-2, 4-20" are the same operation, and this tool exists so you can say the short one. The safety property worth knowing: because output is a fresh copy, a botched range costs a retry, never your original. Rotate survivors with the rotate tool, then renumber — deleted pages leave printed numbers behind, which renumbering fixes.
Frequently asked questions
How do I delete every other page?
List the evens or odds as ranges — '2, 4, 6, 8' and so on. It's the standard fix for duplex scans that inserted blank backs.
Does deleting pages affect quality?
No — remaining pages are copied byte-faithfully into the new file, not re-rendered. Text stays text; images stay untouched.
Is my original file changed?
Never — the tool builds a new PDF and downloads it; your source file on disk is untouched, so mistakes are free.
Do page numbers update after deleting?
Printed page numbers are content and stay as they were; the PDF's page count updates. The page-numbers tool can stamp a fresh sequence afterwards.
