How to Remove Pages from a PDF (Free, No Software)

To remove pages from a PDF, open Organize Pages, check the previews, delete the pages you don't want and save a new copy. It is free, runs in your browser and lets you undo all changes before you save.

Removing pages from a PDF is one of those small jobs that comes up all the time. A scanned document has a blank back page. A downloaded report has twenty pages of appendix you don't need. Or you want to send someone a document without the page that contains your personal details.

You don't need Adobe Acrobat for this. In this guide you'll learn how to delete pages from a PDF for free in your browser, how to check you're deleting the right ones, and the built-in options on Mac, Windows and mobile.

How do I remove pages from a PDF online?

The quickest free method is PDFixed Organize Pages:

1. Open the Organize Pages tool.
2. Click Select PDF files, or drag your PDF onto the page. Every page appears as a preview.
3. Under each page you want to remove, click the delete (bin) button.
4. When only the pages you want are left, click Organize PDF.
5. Click Download PDF to save the new document.

Your original file is never changed — you always download a new copy. And because the tool works inside your browser, your PDF is never uploaded to a server.

What if I delete the wrong page?

Before you save, click Undo all changes and every page comes back in its original order. This makes it safe to experiment.

Can I remove pages and reorder the rest at the same time?

Yes. Organize Pages is built for exactly that. While you're deleting pages you can also:

• Drag pages into a new order, or use the arrow buttons.
• Rotate any page that is sideways or upside down.
• Add pages from another PDF with Add pages from another PDF, then drag them into place.

So you can tidy up a whole document — delete, reorder and rotate — and save it once.

How do I delete pages from a PDF on a Mac?

1. Open the PDF in Preview.
2. Choose View → Thumbnails.
3. Click the page you want to remove (hold Command to select several) and press Delete.
4. Choose File → Export as PDF to save a new copy, or File → Save to change the original.

Preview is a solid option for a quick job on a Mac.

How do I delete pages from a PDF on Windows?

Windows doesn't include a PDF page editor, but there are two free routes:

• Use a browser tool such as Organize Pages. It works in Edge, Chrome and Firefox with page previews and undo.
• Print to PDF: open the PDF in Edge or Chrome, press Ctrl + P, choose Save as PDF, and under Pages enter only the pages you want to keep (for example 1-4, 6-10 to drop page 5). Note that printing can remove links and form fields.

How do I remove pages from a PDF on my phone?

Open pdfixed.com/organize-pdf in Safari or Chrome, select your PDF, tap the bin button under the pages you don't want, then tap Organize PDF at the bottom of the screen and download the result. Pages are shown two per row so they're easy to see on a small screen.

Which method should you use?

Tips before you delete pages

• Keep the original. Save the edited version with a new name so you can always go back.
• Check for hidden content. Deleting a page removes it, but if you need to hide only part of a page — like an account number — you need redaction, not deletion. Read how to redact a PDF properly.
• Pull pages out instead. If you want to keep just a few pages, it can be quicker to extract them with Split PDF.

Need more than deleting pages?

If your PDF needs pages rebuilt, missing pages recreated, or sensitive information removed safely rather than whole pages deleted, our PDF experts can do it for you — with every page checked by a real person.
