Good for

Common use cases

Remove PDF pages when you need to strip unwanted content from a document before sharing, archiving, or submitting it. This is the inverse of extraction: instead of picking the pages you want, you specify the pages you do not want and keep everything else. Typical scenarios include deleting a draft cover page that was never meant for the final version, stripping internal-only appendices from a report before sending it to an external reviewer, removing blank or duplicate pages that a scanner inserted, and trimming boilerplate terms-and-conditions pages from a quote so the recipient sees only the pricing section. You can also use it to strip embedded ad pages from downloaded e-books or remove filler slides from a presentation export. Because the tool runs entirely in the browser with pdf-lib, the source PDF and the trimmed output never leave your device, which matters for contracts, financial statements, medical records, and anything else you would not want to upload to a third-party server.

Questions

Remove PDF Pages: common questions

How is this different from Extract PDF Pages?

Extract copies only the pages you select into a new PDF. Remove does the opposite: it keeps every page except the ones you specify. Use extract when you know which pages you want; use remove when you know which pages you do not want.

Does removing pages change the original file?

No. The tool creates a brand-new PDF with the specified pages excluded. Your original file is never modified.

Can I remove non-consecutive pages?

Yes. Enter any combination of individual page numbers and ranges separated by commas — for example 2, 5-7 removes pages 2, 5, 6, and 7 and keeps everything else.

Is there a page or file-size limit?

The free tier supports PDFs up to 100 MB. There is no hard page-count limit — processing time scales with the total page count, not the number of pages removed.

Are my PDFs uploaded anywhere?

No. Page removal runs entirely in your browser using pdf-lib. The source PDF and the trimmed output never leave your device.

Will this tool stay free?

Yes. Everything this tool does is free. On some tools, a Day or Project Pass raises the file-size and batch limits if you need more.
