Pro Tip: Reduce File Size

Removing high-resolution image pages you don't need is a great way to reduce the overall size of your PDF without compressing the remaining content.

Engineering Philosophy

Surgical Precision.
Zero Content Displacement.

Deleting a page from a PDF sounds simple, but maintaining the integrity of the rest of the document is a complex engineering challenge.

We use PyMuPDF to interact with the PDF structure at the object level. Instead of "cutting" the file, we gracefully unlink the specific page objects from the document tree.

This means all your bookmarks, hyperlinks, form fields, and table of contents entries for the remaining pages stay exactly where they should be. It's like removing a card from the middle of a deck without shuffling the rest.

Why Delete Pages from a PDF?

Sometimes you have a 50-page report but only need to share 3 key pages with a client. Or perhaps you scanned a document and accidently included a blank page or a blurry scan.

PDF Delete Pages gives you full control over your document's length and content. It's the digital equivalent of tearing a sheet out of a notebook—but much cleaner and professional.

Tips for Best Results

Double Check Page Numbers

Common Questions

How do I delete multiple pages at once?
You can enter individual page numbers separated by commas (1, 3, 5) or use a hyphen for a range (10-15). You can even combine them: '1, 3, 10-15'.
Will the links in my PDF stop working?
No. Unlike 'print to PDF' methods, our tool surgically removes the specific pages while keeping the rest of the document's structure, links, and forms intact.
Can I undo the deletion?
Once you download the new file, the pages are gone from that specific copy. We always recommend keeping your original file as a backup.
Is it safe to upload confidential documents?
Yes. We use enterprise-grade encryption for uploads, and our servers automatically delete your files after 2 hours. No one reads your documents.
