Remove PDF pages you do not need — cover sheets, blank scans, or confidential annexures — without rebuilding the whole file in Acrobat. Pick pages in your browser, download a leaner PDF, and keep the original as backup.
PDFProcessed privately in your browser — files are not uploaded.
Page deletion is a local pdf-lib rewrite. SortMyFile never receives the PDF bytes for this tool.

Enter the pages or ranges to drop. Everything else stays in order.
pdf-lib rebuilds the file locally. Nothing is uploaded to SortMyFile.
Strip a cover page before emailing a report, drop blank scanner sheets from a KYC pack, or remove an exhibit before sharing a filing draft.
Remove Pages is built for private, in-browser work. Upload-based PDF sites often store temporary copies on someone else’s disk; SortMyFile’s default is the opposite — processing stays on your device for this utility. Page deletion is a local pdf-lib rewrite. SortMyFile never receives the PDF bytes for this tool. If a step needs a one-time language pack or WASM library from a CDN, that is asset delivery — not your document contents being sent to SortMyFile for server-side processing. Close the tab when you are done if you want memory cleared.
Delete unwanted pages from a PDF. Before you run Remove Pages, keep an original copy of every source file. Spot-check the download on the same device you will use for the portal or email. Large scans and phone photos are limited by browser RAM — if a run stalls, shrink the input first or split the job. SortMyFile browser tools stay free forever with no daily caps.
Strip a cover page before emailing a report, drop blank scanner sheets from a KYC pack, or remove an exhibit before sharing a filing draft. People reach for Remove Pages when a form, HR desk, or messaging app rejects the current file shape, size, or format and installing desktop software is overkill. Pair it with extract-pages, organize-pdf, delete-blank-pages when you need a short pipeline (for example compress then OCR, or HEIC to JPG then JPG to PDF). Results are not a substitute for official portal rules — always re-read the receiving site’s instructions before a deadline.
Remove Pages trades convenience for honesty about browser limits. Extremely large files, corrupted inputs, or DRM-protected media can fail. Password-protected PDFs need a password you already know — SortMyFile does not crack encryption. Free use does not require an account; Pro (when checkout ships) is planned to raise limits and reduce ads. Until then, the free tier is enough for most one-off private jobs.
