Ultra-fast bash script to remove blank pages from a PDF, using open source cpdf.

Simply splits all pages from a PDF into a temp directory, allows user to choose the size of the largest blank page, gets a list of all non-blank pages, and creates a new PDF with only those pages.

Requires cpdf to be installed.

Written for OS X but core code should work on any platform that has a bash shell. Simple modification required.

Usage:

rmpdfblanks.sh <"PDF filename.pdf" in double quotes>

Features

  • very fast
  • uses open source cpdf
