- Using this script you can delete the pages you don't want with just one click.

- I have added a test PDF with the script which you can run to test the script.

- We use **pdfrw** library for this script.

- To install this library, type `pip install pdfrw` in your terminal.

- To run the script run `python3 script.py` and then enter the information as prompted by the program.

A short demo of how the script works

Here We have a pdf file MyPDF.pdf from which we have to delete pages.


Running the script and entering path of the file and the page numbers to be deleted seperated by "," .


The pages in the PDF file has been deleted

**Once you delete the pages using this script they cannot be RETRIEVED so be CAREFUL!**

from pdfrw import PdfWriter, PdfReader

import os

def delete(path, del_page):

"""

# create a pdf object using PdfReader that could be read

pdf_obj = PdfReader(path)

# pdf_obj.pages attribute gives the length of the pages in pdf

total_pages = len(pdf_obj.pages)

print("Total Pages in PDF are:", total_pages)

# Initialising the writer object using the PdfWriter class

writer = PdfWriter()

# Adding only those pages that we need to this list excluding del_page

page_list = [page for page in range(

1, total_pages+1) if page not in del_page]

# Index of pdf_obj.pages starts from 0.

for page in page_list:

writer.addpage(pdf_obj.pages[page-1])

# removing the original pdf

os.remove(path)

# writing the modified file to the memory

writer.write(path)

path = input("enter the path(full or relative) of the pdf file:")

del_page = input(

"Enter the pages to be deleted seperated by comma(,):").strip().split(",")

del_page = [int(i) for i in del_page]

delete(path, del_page)

print("\n\t pages", *del_page, "have been deleted successfully!!!")
