Remove pages from PDF online
Need to remove a cover page, delete blank pages, or strip out confidential sections from a PDF? OpenPDF's Delete Pages tool lets you do all of that in seconds, directly in your browser. No software to install, no files uploaded to any server.
Simply drop your PDF file onto the upload area and you'll see thumbnail previews of every page. Click any page to select it for deletion — selected pages are highlighted in red so you can clearly see what will be removed. Use the Select All and Deselect All buttons for batch operations on larger documents. When you're satisfied with your selection, click Delete & Download to generate a new PDF with the selected pages removed.
Because all processing happens client-side using JavaScript, your documents never leave your device. This makes OpenPDF ideal for handling sensitive documents like contracts, financial statements, medical records, and legal filings. There are no file size limits imposed by a server — performance depends only on your device and browser.
The tool preserves the original quality of your PDF. Text remains searchable, links stay clickable, and formatting is maintained exactly as it was in the original. Only the pages you select for deletion are removed; everything else stays intact.
Frequently asked questions
Can I delete pages from a password-protected PDF?
If the PDF has an owner password that restricts editing but allows viewing, the tool may still work. If the PDF requires a password to open, you will need to unlock it first using a dedicated PDF unlock tool.
Is there a limit on how many pages I can delete?
You can delete any number of pages as long as at least one page remains in the document. The tool prevents you from deleting all pages since that would result in an empty, invalid PDF.
Does deleting pages reduce the file size?
Yes. Removing pages eliminates the content associated with those pages, which typically reduces the overall file size. The reduction depends on how much content (text, images, graphics) was on the deleted pages.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. All processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your PDF files never leave your device, and no data is transmitted over the internet.
Can I undo after downloading?
The original file is never modified. The tool creates a new PDF with the selected pages removed. Your original document remains unchanged on your device.
