Remove blank pages
Find the empty pages a scanner left behind and delete them.
Blank pages are judged by how they look. A page with only faint text may be removed, and a blank page with specks may stay. Check the page numbers listed after the run.
Your files are never uploaded.
How to use it
- Drop one scanned PDF.
- Keep normal sensitivity, or choose strict (only perfectly clean pages) or loose (pages with a few specks).
- Press Run; Orihako lists the pages it removed.
Questions and answers
How does it decide a page is blank?
Each page is looked at in small size; if almost nothing on it is dark, it counts as blank. The edges, where scanners leave shadows, are ignored.
A page with a faint mark was removed.
Choose strict sensitivity, which removes only pages with almost nothing on them, and run again on the original.
Is anything changed on the other pages?
No. The kept pages are copied as they are.
