About This Tool

Remove Blank Pages automatically detects and removes empty pages from your PDF documents. This is useful for cleaning up scanned documents, removing separator pages, or eliminating accidentally included blank pages.

The tool uses intelligent detection to identify truly blank pages while preserving pages with minimal content. You can adjust the sensitivity threshold to control what counts as "blank".

All processing happens locally in your browser, ensuring your documents remain private.
