Best use cases
Worked example
Appendix removal example
A user can remove pages `11-18` from a long PDF packet to create a shorter version for sharing with clients or teammates.
- Double-check the pages to delete before running the action.
- Keep the original PDF in case you need the removed pages later.
- Open the output once after export to confirm the remaining sequence is correct.
Delete PDF Pages is strongest when you need a trimmed output PDF without manually rebuilding the document.
Methodology
- The tool loads the source PDF in the browser, determines which pages should remain, and copies only those pages into a new output document.
- The deleted page list is never written back into the source file; a separate replacement PDF is created for download.
