How can I delete a page in a PDF with Maverick's Preview 7.0?

Well that helps, but I will still urge you to install the Combo update.

🙂

My son has been recommending the same thing. With Yosemite due out any week now, I'll probably wait. But perhaps I'll do the combo update with Yosemite instead of doing the delta update.

Thanks for the help!

That won't be possible, Yosemite won't appear as an update. It will be a new system entirely. Once Yosemite is installed and starts getting updated it will follow the delta/combo pattern.

Just use the Delete button. It will take a couple of seconds to delete it but it will work.

To get Thumbnail option just click on the icon at the top left corner which looks like a double page and you will get all the options there.

THANK YOU!!!!

Try File -> Duplicate and repeat the process on the new copy. It should work.

You can delete pages only if your pdf document is not locked. The delete button is disable when the document is locked. You can find ways to unblock it online.

Is this security settings on your PDF.

I had this problem and I exported the PDF to a new file and then all was fine.

CMD + i the problem doc and see if there is security listed.

The Answer is:

You may not perform the edits (such as deleting pages) until AFTER you have saved the scanned document to your computer.

Once saved. Close the document, open it again and Preview will allow you to make changes. (Delete pages etc.)

No Purchase required.

In El Capitan's Preview, one can simply select a thumbnail in Preview, and hit backspace (delete) to remove the PDF page. Does this work in Mavericks?
