Remove Blank Pages: how it works

Double-sided scanning of single-sided documents leaves a blank page after every real one. FileStripe renders each page, measures how much of it contains ink and removes the empty ones; the remaining pages are copied untouched.

How to remove blank pages from a PDF

  1. Add a PDF.
  2. Choose the sensitivity.
  3. Download the cleaned PDF; the note lists removed pages.

Frequently asked questions

It removed a page I wanted. Why?

That page had very little content. Choose the lowest sensitivity, or use Delete PDF pages to choose pages yourself.

Is the Remove Blank Pages free?

Yes. The Remove Blank Pages is completely free with no sign-up, no watermarks, no daily limits and no premium tier.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. FileStripe processes your files locally in your web browser using JavaScript. Nothing is uploaded, so the Remove Blank Pages is safe for private photos and confidential documents and even works offline once the page has loaded.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. The Remove Blank Pages works in Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Samsung Internet on phones, tablets and computers. On a phone you can pick files from your photo library or files app and share the result straight to another app.
