Delete pages from a PDF

Three blank pages printed at the end of a report, a crooked scan wedged into a contract — just cut them. Type the page numbers you want gone (mix singles and ranges, like 2, 5-7, 10) and compress cat removes exactly those, keeps everything else, and hands you a fresh PDF. It all runs in your browser; the original never leaves your machine.

How to delete pages

  1. 1Select a PDF file; the tool shows the total page count.
  2. 2Type the pages to delete, for example 2, 5-7, 10.
  3. 3Confirm which pages are removed and how many remain, then click “Delete & download”.

Why use compress cat's Delete pages?

  • Mix singles and ranges however you like: 2, 5-7, 10 all parse in one box — no clicking through pages one at a time.
  • It removes pages, not content: text, images and bookmarks on the pages you keep stay byte-for-byte intact, with no re-encoding and no quality loss.
  • A confirmation step shows which pages go and how many remain before anything is committed, so a typo won’t quietly delete the wrong page.

Frequently asked questions

Upload the PDF and the tool shows the total page count. Type the pages to remove — say 2, 5-7, 10 — and compress cat drops those, keeps the rest, and exports a new PDF to download. All of it happens locally in your browser.

The pages that survive simply close ranks, so the order stays continuous (your old page 8 may now sit where page 5 was). If you need a clean printed sequence afterward, run compress cat’s Add page numbers tool to renumber.
