How to delete a page in Google Docs

First, try placing your cursor at the beginning of the blank page and pressing Backspace (Windows/ChromeOS) or Delete (Mac) until the page disappears. If that doesn’t work, check for extra paragraph spaces by enabling Show formatting from the View menu. Deleting empty paragraphs often resolves the issue.

Another common cause is a manual page break. If a break was inserted, it can be removed by placing the cursor just before it and pressing Backspace or Delete until the page is removed.

If the page remains, adjusting margins may help. Open the Page setup menu and reduce the bottom margin slightly. This can shift text upward, potentially eliminating the extra page.

On the Google Docs mobile app, blank pages can be removed by selecting and deleting any extra spaces or page breaks. Scrolling through the document and checking for unnecessary blank lines helps ensure a clean layout.

By using these methods, you can quickly delete unwanted pages and maintain a well-organized document. Keeping a structured format improves readability and ensures a professional appearance.
