Extract PDF pages

Pull exactly the pages you need from a larger PDF — one invoice from a statement bundle, one exhibit from a legal file, or slides 10–20 from a deck. Extraction copies pages into a new PDF locally without uploading the source file.
Pages
Use commas and ranges, e.g. 1,3,5-7.

How to extract PDF pages

1. Upload the source PDF.
2. Enter page numbers or ranges to keep.
3. Preview selection if the tool shows thumbnails.
4. Download the new PDF containing only those pages.

Extraction examples

Invoice copy for accounting

Extract page 3 (invoice) from a monthly vendor PDF that includes terms on other pages.

Portfolio sample

Extract five project pages from a 50-page credentials deck for a RFP.

Parent consent form

Extract the signed page from a school packet for records.

When to extract pages

When sharing a subset without exposing the full document.
When building a new packet from existing PDF parts.
When file size limits require sending fewer pages.

When to split instead

When you need many separate one-page files — split all pages mode may be faster.
When pages must be deleted rather than kept — use delete PDF pages.
When password-protected — unlock first.

Redaction vs extract

Extracting pages you share is not redaction — hidden pages in the source file may still exist elsewhere. True redaction removes content from the same file.

Merge extracted parts

Extract chapters from different PDFs, then merge PDF in custom order for a tailored reader experience.

Naming downloads

Rename extracted files descriptively (invoice-2024-03.pdf) before emailing — recipients get dozens of "document.pdf" otherwise.

Frequently asked questions

Difference from split PDF?

Extract keeps chosen pages in one new file; split may produce multiple outputs or complementary modes — goals overlap.

Order preserved?

Extracted pages follow the order you specify, not necessarily original numbering.

Links and bookmarks?

Internal links pointing outside the extract may break — verify in a reader.

Local only?

Yes — pdf-lib style processing in-browser.

Forms and signatures?

Simple pages usually copy; complex digital signatures may invalidate — check compliance needs.

Free?

Yes, no account.
