Frequently Asked Questions

Can I delete multiple non-consecutive pages at once?

Yes! You can select multiple pages using Ctrl+click or specify ranges like "1-3, 7, 10-15" to delete non-consecutive pages in a single operation. The visual selection interface makes it easy to see exactly which pages will be removed.

Will deleting pages affect the PDF file size?

Yes, deleting pages reduces the file size proportionally. The tool automatically optimizes the remaining content, so a PDF with 50% of pages deleted will typically be about 50% smaller, making it more efficient to share and store.

Can I undo page deletions before downloading?

Yes! The tool includes full undo/redo functionality during the editing process. You can reverse deletions, change selections, and preview different combinations before generating the final PDF.

Are page numbers updated after deletion?

The remaining pages maintain their original content, but if your PDF has page numbering in headers/footers, these will remain as they were in the original document. The page order flows naturally after deletion.

Is it safe to delete pages from confidential documents?

Absolutely! All PDF processing happens entirely in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to servers, and deleted content is permanently removed from memory, ensuring complete privacy for sensitive documents.
