Why use this tool?

Automatically eliminate blank pages introduced by duplex scans, office exports or assembled documents. Detection runs locally on a preview of each page: your PDF is never sent to a server.

Fonctionnement

How does this tool work?

The PDF engine renders each page at low resolution, measures the proportion of pixels that differ from white according to your thresholds, then removes only pages detected as blank. You can make detection stricter or more tolerant before running it again. The engine always keeps at least one page and never changes the original file.

Use cases

Remove blank sheets introduced by duplex scanning.

Prepare a PDF for printing

Automate a pipeline
