How do I extract pages from a PDF?
Choose your PDF and wait for the previews to load. Click the pages you want to keep, or type a range such as 1-3, 7 and press Select range. Then press Extract pages and download the new PDF. It takes seconds and doesn't need an account.
What's the difference between extract and split?
Extract keeps the pages you pick in one new PDF. Split cuts a document into several files by ranges or every N pages. Use Extract when you want one shorter document, and Split PDF when you want many separate files from one long PDF. Both keep quality.
Are pages in the new file in my click order?
No, they keep the order of the original document, whichever order you clicked them in. To change the order, extract the pages first, then use Organise PDF to drag them into the sequence you want before saving the final file. Both tools are free. Both tools are free to use.
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. Everything runs on your device, so the file is never uploaded to our servers. That makes it safe for contracts, statements and medical reports. Once the page has loaded, extracting pages even works without an internet connection. Nothing is stored or shared anywhere. Nothing is stored or shared.
Does extracting pages change the original file?
No. Your original PDF stays exactly as it was. The tool creates a new file with only the pages you chose, which you download separately. If you pick the wrong pages, simply start again with the same original. You can extract as many versions as you need.
Can I extract pages from a scanned PDF?
Yes. Scanned pages are images in the PDF, and they're extracted the same way as text pages. The previews make it easy to spot the right pages. The text on scanned pages still won't be searchable, because the tool doesn't do OCR. Quality stays as scanned.
How do I type a page range?
Use commas and dashes: 1-3, 7 selects pages one to three and page seven. Press Select range to tick those pages in the preview, then add or remove pages by clicking if needed. The preview always shows exactly what will be extracted. Check it before extracting.
Will the extracted pages lose quality?
No. Pages are copied as they are, with their text, images and fonts unchanged. Selectable text stays selectable and links on the page still work. The new file is simply shorter. Fonts and images are copied exactly, so printed pages look identical to the original.
Can I extract pages on a phone?
Yes, in modern mobile browsers. Previews may take a moment to load for long documents. Tap pages to select them, or type a range, then extract and download. Very large PDFs are easier on a computer. Close other apps if it slows down. No app is needed.
Can I extract pages from a password-protected PDF?
Not directly. Open the PDF with its password in a viewer, save an unlocked copy, then extract pages from that copy. This is common with bank statements, which are often protected with a date of birth or an account number. Delete the unlocked copy later.
Why are previews slow to load?
Large or image-heavy PDFs take longer to draw, especially on phones, because previews are rendered on your device. Wait for them to finish, or type a page range instead of clicking. The extraction itself is usually quick. Closing other browser tabs can help. Closing other tabs can help.
Can I extract one page as an image instead?
Yes, use PDF to JPG and choose the page you need. It saves the page as a JPG or PNG picture, which is handy for sharing a single page on WhatsApp. Choose 150 dpi for screens or 300 dpi for printing. Both run in your browser.
Is there a page limit?
There's no fixed limit because nothing is uploaded. Your device's memory sets the practical limit, so very long scanned PDFs may be slow on a phone. Splitting the work or using a laptop helps. Most everyday documents finish in seconds. Most documents finish in a few seconds.
Can I extract pages and add page numbers?
Yes. Extract the pages first, then run the new PDF through Add page numbers to PDF to number them from 1. Both tools work in your browser, so the document stays on your device throughout. You choose the position and format of the numbers. You pick the number format and position.
