Understanding Remove Blank Pages

What This Tool Does

Remove Blank Pages inspects each page in your PDF and removes pages that appear empty according to a configurable threshold. This helps clean scanner artifacts and unnecessary spacing pages.

Blank Detection Threshold

Detection is based on non-white ink coverage percentage. Lower threshold values are strict, while higher values also remove near-empty pages with tiny marks.

Output Reliability

The tool preserves non-blank pages in original order and produces a new PDF. It prevents removing all pages so output remains a valid PDF document.

Private Browser Workflow

Page detection and cleanup run entirely in-browser. Your files are not uploaded to external servers.
