How to Delete Pages from a PDF

Whether it's a duplicate page, a scan with a blank insert, or a cover you don't need, removing pages from a PDF takes seconds.

Delete pages in three steps

1. Open Delete PDF Pages.
2. Choose the PDF.
3. Type the pages to remove — like 2, 5-8 — and click DELETE.

Both single pages and ranges work, and you can mix them: 3, 7, 10-12.

Choosing what to remove

Before deleting, consider:

• Blank pages — use Remove Blank PDF Pages to find them automatically.
• Only a few pages from the middle — deleting is faster than extracting.
• Most of the document — extracting the pages you keep with Extract PDF Pages is cleaner.

What happens to the rest

• Remaining pages keep their original order and content.
• Bookmarks pointing to deleted pages are removed with them.
• File size shrinks roughly in proportion to what's removed.

Important caveats

• Deleting cannot be undone in the output file — keep the original until you've verified the result.
• Page numbers you type that don't exist are ignored automatically.
• Deleting every page is blocked — at least one page must remain.

Frequently asked questions

Can I delete pages on mobile?

Yes — the tool is fully responsive.

Does deletion damage other pages?

No. Pages are copied without re-encoding, so the rest of the document is untouched.

What if I delete the wrong page?

Re-run from your original file — it is never modified.
