# Remove PDF outlines using JavaScript

Creating, editing, or removing document outlines is available when using [Web SDK](/guides/web.md) in the browser. For more information, refer to the [operational mode](/guides/web/about/operational-modes.md) guide.

With Nutrient Web SDK, you can delete PDF outlines using the [`instance.setDocumentOutline` method](https://www.nutrient.io/api/web/NutrientViewer.Instance.html#setDocumentOutline). The example below shows how to do it by setting the outline to an empty `NutrientViewer.Immutable.List([])`:

```js

await instance.setDocumentOutline(NutrientViewer.Immutable.List([]));

```
