Removing pages is the everyday cleanup job: the blank separator sheets a scanner inserted, the fax cover page, the terms and conditions nobody needs in the internal copy, the duplicate someone fed through twice. This tool shows you every page as a thumbnail so you can see exactly what you are cutting before you commit.
Deletion here is genuine removal, not hiding. The pages you keep are copied into a brand new PDF with pdf-lib and the deleted ones simply never make it in. The content is gone from the output file, not merely marked invisible — which matters when the reason for removing a page is that it should not be shared.
The document is opened, edited and rebuilt entirely in your browser. The pages you delete are discarded locally and never transmitted anywhere.
-organized suffix.| Action | What happens to the content | Recoverable? |
|---|---|---|
| Delete pages (here) | The page is never copied into the new file | No |
| Crop PDF | Content stays in the file, viewers just show less | Yes — trivially |
| Drawing a black box | Text sits underneath the rectangle | Yes — copy and paste reveals it |
If a whole page is sensitive, deleting it here removes it properly. If part of a page is sensitive, no page-level tool can help — convert that page to an image with PDF to JPG, paint over the area in an image editor, and rebuild the PDF from the flattened image.
Yes. A new PDF is built containing only the pages you kept, so the deleted content is not present in the output at all. This is different from cropping, which merely hides content that remains in the file.
Within the editor, yes — nothing is written until you save, so reload the file to start again. Once the new PDF is downloaded, the removed pages exist only in your original file.
Click each page you want gone; there is no range selector. For large contiguous blocks it is often faster to use Split PDF to extract the pages you want to keep instead.
Not their content. Kept pages are copied as complete PDF objects, so text, fonts and vector graphics are unchanged. Only their position in the document shifts.
No. Numbers printed into the page content are part of that content. Delete the pages here, then use Add Page Numbers to stamp a fresh sequence if you need one.
No. PDF.js renders the thumbnails and pdf-lib writes the new file, both inside your browser tab.
