How To Use

1

Upload the PDF

Choose the PDF whose header and footer you want to remove.

2

Check the red areas

The tool finds text that repeats at the top and bottom of the pages and marks it in red. Adjust with the sliders if needed.

3

Choose how to remove

Cover with the page colour (page size stays the same) or cut the strips off (pages get a little shorter).

4

Remove and download

Choose the pages, tap Remove Header & Footer and download the PDF.

About This Tool

Remove Header & Footer clears the top and bottom strip of PDF pages, for example old page numbers, a company name, a website address or a document title, so you can reuse or reprint the pages cleanly.

Frequently Asked Questions

It did not find my header.

Headers made of pictures or logos, and scanned pages, cannot be read as text. Move the Remove header slider until the red area covers it.

Which removal method should I use?

Cover keeps the page size and is best for printing. Cut off makes each page a little shorter and leaves nothing drawn on the page.

Will the rest of the page change?

No. Only the red strips are changed; text, pictures and links on the rest of the page stay as they are.

Is my file uploaded to a server?

No. The tool runs entirely in your browser, so your file never leaves your device and nothing is stored on our side.
