Remove unwanted pages from a PDF
Scanning almost always leaves a few blank or duplicate pages behind. Type the page numbers you want gone and download a clean PDF.
Scanners produce blank backs of single-sided sheets. Downloaded forms carry three pages of instructions before the form itself. Bank statements arrive with a page of terms at the end. Removing them makes the file smaller and stops an office wading through pages that do not matter.
Count positions in the file, not the numbers printed on the paper. The first sheet in the PDF is page 1 even if it is labelled 'ii' or carries no number at all.
If you want to keep only a handful of pages out of many, it is quicker to extract them than to list everything you are removing. Split / Extract PDF does that. And if you want to reorder as well as remove, Organize Pages shows every page as a thumbnail so you can see what you are doing.
As many as you like — write something like 2,5-9,14. You just cannot remove every page.
