This tool processes your input in this browser. Inputs and results are excluded from analytics. Recent tools save tool names, visit counts and last-visit times. Favorites store only tool names. Draft saving is optional and stays on this device; delete saved text with the draft controls. Loading text from a URL is optional and contacts that server; its URL and your IP address are visible to the server. When a button sends your result to another tool, it waits in this tab until that tool opens it, for up to a minute, and is then deleted.

Sharing and starting over

A copied link includes what you entered and your settings, so anyone with it can see them. Leave private text out. Files and results are not included; random draws are made again.

Start over puts the tool back to its starting values and closes any open file or device. Drafts you saved stay on this device until you delete them.

How to delete pages from a PDF

Choose the PDF, then tap the pages to take out or type them (3, 7-9). The pages you keep stay in their order, and the new file holds only those.

The pages you keep are copied as they are, without being redrawn or compressed again, so text and pictures keep their quality. The file's bookmarks are not kept.
