# Delete pages from a PDF

Click the pages you want to remove – blank pages, old drafts, the cover – and download the PDF without them.

[Do this for your team](https://www.helprange.com/feature-secure-documents-sharing)

## How it works

### Choose your PDF

Every page appears as a thumbnail, drawn in your browser.

### Click the pages to delete

A red mark shows what goes – or type the page numbers, e.g. 2, 5-7.

### Download

A new PDF without those pages – the text, links and pictures of the other pages stay exactly as they were.

### Send just the pages that matter – and see who read them

Share the extracted part as a HelpRange link: page-by-page analytics, an alert when it is opened, a watermark with the reader's e-mail and access you can revoke.

Removing pages is the quickest way to send a clean document: drop the empty back of a scan, the internal cover sheet, or the draft annex before a file goes to a client, an investor or a court.

## When to delete pages

- The empty backs of a two-sided scan.
- An internal cover sheet, routing slip or fax header before the document goes out.
- Old annexes or draft pages that were replaced.
- Pages a recipient must not see – a price list in a proposal sent to a partner, for example.

Deleted pages are gone from the new file: their text and pictures are not hidden, they are left out. Links in other pages that pointed to them stop working, and bookmarks to them are removed.

## Keep or remove?

If you need the opposite – keep three pages and drop the rest – [extract pages](https://www.helprange.com/tools/extract-pages) is quicker. To remove only a paragraph or a number on a page, use [redaction](https://www.helprange.com/tools/redact-pdf) instead: it deletes the text under a black box without removing the page. And if the document still has to be shared after the clean-up, a protected link shows you who read which page.

FAQ

## Delete pages from a PDF – questions

How do I choose the pages?

Click them in the page preview – a red mark shows they will be removed – or type the page numbers, e.g. 2, 5-7.

Is the original changed?

No. You download a new PDF without the chosen pages; your original file stays as it is on your computer.

Do you keep my file?

Only for a short time: uploads are deleted right after processing, the result after 30 minutes – or at once with “Delete now”.

Can I undo the deletion?

Your original file is not changed – choose it again to start over. The new PDF without the pages is a separate file.
