How do I delete in Acrobat?

Published in Adobe Acrobat 2 mins read

To delete pages in Adobe Acrobat, use the "Organize Pages" tool. Here's how:

  1. Open the Organize Pages Tool: You can access this tool in one of two ways:

    • Choose Tools > Organize Pages.
    • Alternatively, select Organize Pages from the right pane.
  2. Select Pages to Delete: Click the thumbnail of the page or pages you want to remove. You can select multiple pages by holding down the Shift key (for a range of pages) or the Ctrl key (for individual pages).

  3. Delete the Pages: Once the desired pages are selected, click the Delete icon. This icon typically looks like a trash can. This will remove the selected pages from the PDF document.

Important Considerations:

  • Save Your Changes: After deleting the pages, be sure to save the modified PDF document to preserve your changes. Go to File > Save or File > Save As.
  • Recovering Deleted Pages: Once pages are deleted and the document is saved, they cannot be recovered. Consider making a backup copy of your PDF before deleting pages if you might need them later.
  • Deletion from different locations: The exact names of panels and buttons might vary slightly based on the version of Acrobat you're using, but the core functionality will remain the same.
  • If you accidentally delete something: Immediately press Ctrl+Z (Windows) or Cmd+Z (Mac) to undo the last action, if the file hasn't been saved.
