Extract PDF pages
Extraction copies the pages you select into a new document and leaves the source file alone. It is the right tool when you need to send three pages of a fifty page contract rather than the whole thing.
How to use it
- 1 Add the PDF.
- 2 Select pages in the thumbnail view, or type a range such as 3 to 7 and 12.
- 3 Choose one combined document or one file per page.
- 4 Extract and download.
Formats this tool accepts
Each one has a reference page covering what it stores and where it is supported.
Questions about extract pdf pages
Does the original file change?
No. Your source PDF is read and never modified. The extracted pages are written to a new file.
Do the extracted pages keep their formatting?
Yes. Page content, fonts and images are copied exactly, so an extracted page looks identical to the page in the original document.
What is the difference between extract and split?
Extract keeps a chosen subset and discards the rest. Split divides the whole document into several files without discarding anything.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The whole thing runs inside the browser tab you already have open. Your file is read straight from your own disk, worked on there, and handed back as a download. Nothing is sent anywhere, nothing is stored, and there is no account and no queue.
Is there a file size limit?
There is no server-side limit because there is no server. The practical ceiling is your device memory, since the file and its output both have to fit in the tab. Files up to a few hundred megabytes are usually fine on a desktop machine, while phones and older laptops will struggle sooner. If a large file fails, close other tabs and try again.
Does it work offline?
Yes, once the page has loaded once. The engine is cached by the browser, so you can turn off your connection, reload the page and keep working. That is a useful side effect of doing the processing locally rather than a separate offline mode you have to enable.
