How it works
The page numbers you enter for removal are inverted by the tool to produce a keep list: every index from 1 to the total page count that is not on the remove list. That keep list is passed to pdf-lib's copyPages(), and the surviving pages are appended to a new document with addPage(). The original file on disk is untouched, you simply receive a cleaned-up copy.
Processing runs in your browser
All processing happens inside your browser tab. pdf-lib handles everything in memory, with no network requests. You can verify this yourselfin your browser's DevTools Network tab.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I remove pages from a PDF?
- Load your PDF, enter the page numbers to delete in the field (e.g. '2, 5-7'), and click Remove. A new PDF without those pages downloads automatically.
- Can I remove multiple non-consecutive pages at once?
- Yes. Enter any combination of individual pages and ranges separated by commas, for example '1, 3-5, 10' removes pages 1, 3, 4, 5, and 10.
- Will my original PDF be changed?
- A new PDF is created and downloaded. Your original file on disk stays unchanged.
- Can I preview which pages will be removed?
- Yes. After loading the PDF, the thumbnail grid highlights the pages you've entered in red so you can confirm before clicking Remove.
- Is there a limit to how many pages I can remove?
- You can remove any number of pages, leaving as few as one page in the output. The only restriction is that the result must contain at least one page.
