Delete Pages from a PDF
Take out the pages you do not want and keep the rest, without uploading the file.

Loading the tool…
Your file is opened by this page and never uploaded. It is not sent anywhere, and the page keeps working with the network off.
Need to combine documents first? Merge PDF is this same editor and takes any number of files at once, so you can join them and drop pages in one go.
Drag a page to move it. The bin on a page drops it, and the arrows nudge it along. Everything you see here is what you download.
One page: 7. A range: 1-3. Several:
1-3, 7, 10. Backwards to reverse them: 12-9.

This page opens with the box reading pages to remove. Type them,
3 or 2, 7-9, and those pages disappear from the thumbnails;
everything else stays, in its order, and is what you download. It is the quick way
to take a blank page out of a scan, the cover sheet off a fax, the terms and
conditions off the end of an invoice, or a page that should never have been in a
document you are about to send.
The bin on each thumbnail does the same by sight, and the box keeps up, so you can see the list of what is going. Drag any page to reorder the rest at the same time. The pages that stay are copied untouched, with their text, fonts and pictures exactly as they were.
Removing a page removes it from the file you download, not just from view: the new PDF is built from the pages you keep, and the ones you took out are not in it anywhere.
How to use it
- Choose the PDF. It is read here and never uploaded.
- Type the pages to remove, like 2, 7-9, or press the bin on each one.
- Check the thumbnails: what is left is what you will download.
- Press Download for the PDF without those pages.
Questions
How do I delete one page from a PDF?
Type its number in the box, which on this page lists pages to remove, or press the bin on its thumbnail. It disappears from the grid, and the download is the document without it.
How do I remove blank pages from a scan?
Look along the thumbnails for the white ones and bin them, or type their numbers. A blank page of a scan is rarely perfectly white, so it is worth a look rather than trusting any automatic guess.
Is the deleted page really gone from the file?
Yes. The new PDF is assembled from the pages you keep, and nothing from the removed ones is copied into it: not the page, not its pictures, not its text. That matters when the page held something private.
Can I put a page back?
Yes: take its number out of the box, or press Put them all back to start again. Nothing is final until you download, and the original file on your computer is never changed.
Is my file uploaded?
No. It is read and rebuilt in this tab by WebAssembly, and the page is served with a rule that forbids it from opening a connection anywhere. Turn the network off once the page has loaded and it works the same, which is the way to check it rather than take it on trust.

Your data stays on your device
Everything above runs inside your browser as WebAssembly compiled from Rust. Nothing you type is uploaded, logged or stored on a server. You can load this page once, go offline, and it still works.
This page makes no requests at all, to anywhere. That is not a promise in the copy: it is a Content-Security-Policy header your browser enforces, and connect-src on it is none. Open the network tab and watch nothing happen.
