How to Delete Blank Pages from a PDF
Clean up your documents by quickly identifying and deleting unnecessary or blank pages from a PDF file.
Cleaning Up Scans
When using an automatic document feeder (ADF) on a scanner, it's common to accidentally scan the blank backs of single-sided documents. Submitting a PDF with random blank pages looks unprofessional.
Visual Page Deletion
You can use Tuko's Split/Extract tool to easily remove these pages:
- Upload your document.
- Look at the visual grid of page thumbnails. Blank pages will be instantly obvious.
- Simply select all the pages you want to keep (ignoring the blank ones).
- Click Extract to generate a clean, continuous PDF.
