Frequently asked questions

Is it free to delete pages from a PDF here?

Yes, it is completely free to use. There is no sign-up, no watermark on your file and no payment. It runs in your browser, so there is no per-file charge.

How do I delete a page from a PDF?

Choose your PDF, click ✕ under the page you want to remove, then press Create PDF. The new file has everything except the deleted pages.

How do I delete several pages at once?

Type the page numbers in the box, for example 1, 3-5 to delete page 1 and pages 3 to 5, then press Delete. The numbers are the original page numbers shown on the previews.

Will deleting pages make my PDF smaller?

Usually yes, because the pages and their images are not copied into the new file. If it is still too large, use Compress PDF afterwards.

Can I get a deleted page back?

Before you press Create PDF, yes: press ↺ under the page or "Restore deleted pages". After you download, your original file is unchanged, so you can start again from it.

Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?

No. Your file is read and changed on your own device using your browser. Nothing is sent to a server, so it is safe to use with private documents.

Does my original file change?

No. The tool makes a new PDF for you to download. Your original file stays exactly as it was.
