About Delete PDF Pages
Delete PDF Pages removes the pages you don't want from a PDF and saves what's left as a new file. You pick the pages to drop — a blank scan, a duplicate, a cover sheet, or a page of notes you'd rather not send on — and the tool rebuilds the document without them. You can remove a single page or several at once, including pages that aren't next to each other, and the pages you keep stay in their original order and quality while being renumbered automatically in the new copy.
If you've been wondering how to delete pages from a PDF without Adobe Acrobat or Reader, this does the same job in a browser tab, on any operating system. It's a straightforward alternative to opening Preview on a Mac or MacBook, and it works the same way on Windows, Linux, and Chromebooks — open a PDF, mark the pages to remove, and save. It never touches the file you started with, so the pages you cut are still there in the original on your drive if you change your mind.
The whole tool runs in your browser using pdf-lib, so your PDF is read and rebuilt on your own device and is never uploaded to a server. It's free with no account, no usage limits, and no watermark, and there's nothing to install — a normal browser is all you need.
Frequently asked questions
- How do you delete pages from a PDF document?
- Open your PDF, mark the pages you want to remove, and save the trimmed version. You can drop a single page or a batch of pages in one save, and the pages you keep are written out in their original order and renumbered in the new file.
- Is it free, and do I need an account?
- Yes, it is free, and there is no account or sign-up. You can delete pages from as many PDFs as you like, with no usage limits and no watermark on the result.
- Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
- No. The whole tool runs in your browser using pdf-lib, so the file is read and rebuilt on your own device and never sent to a server. Nothing about the document leaves your computer.
- Can you delete pages from a PDF permanently?
- Yes. The tool rebuilds the document without the pages you marked and saves that as a new file, so those pages are genuinely gone from the copy rather than just hidden. Your original file stays untouched, so keep it if you might want the removed pages back.
- Can I remove more than one page at a time?
- Yes. You can select several pages to delete in one go, including pages that are not next to each other. The pages that remain are renumbered automatically in the new file.
- How do I delete pages from a PDF on a Mac or MacBook?
- You can use Preview's thumbnail sidebar on macOS, but this tool does the same thing in any browser without opening a separate app. The steps are identical on a MacBook, a Windows PC, or a Chromebook: open the PDF, select the pages to remove, and save the new copy.
- Can I do this without Adobe Acrobat or Reader?
- Yes. This is a free alternative to deleting pages in Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader, with no paid subscription and no download required. It runs in a browser tab and produces a clean PDF with the unwanted pages removed.
- What file does it accept, and does it change my original?
- It works on standard PDF files and saves a new copy rather than editing the file you opened. Because your original is left as it was, keep it around if you may want those pages back later.
- Can it open a password-protected PDF?
- It works on ordinary PDFs but cannot open a password-protected or encrypted file until that protection is removed. Remove the password first, then delete the pages you don't need.
