How it works & useful details

How to use this tool

Enter the pages to keep, such as 3, 1-2. The output follows your entered order and preserves original page dimensions. Pages are numbered from 1; duplicate pages and descending ranges are rejected.

Limits and document support

Use an unencrypted PDF with 1โ€“500 pages and a size below 50 MiB. Interactive forms are not supported; export a flattened copy first. New documents copy pages only. Document metadata, bookmarks, attachments, page labels, and digital signatures are not preserved; page links may stop working.

About this tool

Extract PDF pages creates a new document that contains only the pages you name, in exactly the order you enter them. It is handy for pulling a signed page, a single chapter, or a handful of exhibits out of a longer report.

Processing happens locally in a browser worker. Pages keep their original dimensions and content, and because the source document is only read, your original file stays as it was.

How to use it

  1. Choose one unencrypted PDF file.
  2. Enter the pages to keep, for example 3, 1-2; the output follows your entered order.
  3. Select Extract pages.
  4. Download the new PDF and save it next to the original.

Worked example

Entering 3, 1-2 on a document creates a new PDF with the original page 3 first, followed by pages 1 and 2. The output follows exactly the order you type, so extracting and reordering happen in one step. Duplicate pages and descending ranges such as 5-3 are rejected, so a typo cannot silently produce a different document.

Extract vs. split vs. delete

  • Extract: one new PDF containing only the pages you list. Best for sending a single chapter, a signature page, or the relevant pages of a long statement.
  • Split: a separate PDF for each selected page. Best for breaking a batch scan into individual documents.
  • Delete: the whole document minus the pages you list. Best when you want to keep almost everything.

Pages are copied, not re-rendered, so text stays selectable and searchable, and vector graphics stay sharp at any zoom level.

Frequently asked questions

Can I repeat a page or use a descending range?

No. Pages must be numbered from 1, and duplicate pages or ranges written high-to-low such as 5-3 are rejected so the output order stays unambiguous.

What are the document limits?

One unencrypted PDF with 1-500 pages and a size below 50 MiB per run.

Are bookmarks and metadata copied to the new file?

No. The extracted document contains pages only; metadata, bookmarks, attachments, page labels, and signatures are not preserved, and page links may stop working.

Does the original file change?

No. A new PDF is created in your browser, and the original stays exactly as it was.
