How to remove blank pages from a PDF

Blank pages sneak into PDFs from double-sided scans and document separators. Removing them tidies the file and trims its size.

Find them

Skim the thumbnails to spot the empties — usually every other page in a duplex scan of single-sided originals.

Remove in one pass

List the blank page numbers and delete them together rather than one at a time.

In FreshPDF

Delete the empties with the delete pages tool, or click-select them in the editor's Organize view.
