How to extract pages from a PDF online

  1. Add your PDF

    Drop the PDF onto the tool, or browse or paste it from your clipboard. The full page range is filled in for you straight away.

  2. List the pages you want

    Type the pages and ranges to keep, such as 1-3, 5, 8-10. The new document rebuilds as you type.

  3. Download the new PDF

    Click Download PDF to save one file containing only the pages you listed, in their original order.

Why use this tool

One file, not many

Every page you list lands in a single new document, so a scattered selection like 1-3, 5, 8-10 comes back as one PDF rather than three separate files.

Pages and ranges together

Mix single pages and hyphenated ranges in one field. Duplicates are collapsed and the order always follows the original document.

Out-of-range pages are ignored

Ask for page 40 of a 12-page file and the tool keeps what exists, then says plainly which numbers it skipped.

Nothing is re-encoded

Selected pages are copied whole, so text stays selectable, links keep working, and images hold their original resolution.

Extracts without a server

The document is opened and rebuilt on your device. Free to use, nothing uploaded, no watermark added.

About this tool

This extractor takes one PDF and returns one PDF containing only the pages you asked for. Drop a file and the field is pre-filled with the whole document, so there is always a working result on screen; narrow it to something like 1-3, 5, 8-10 and the new file rebuilds as you type. Pages are always written in document order, duplicates are collapsed, and numbers past the last page are dropped with a note rather than failing the whole selection.

Pulling pages out is the everyday half of PDF surgery: sending only the signature page of a contract, keeping the three slides that matter out of a sixty-slide deck, or lifting one chapter from a scanned book. Because the pages are copied rather than redrawn, the output keeps selectable text, working links, and full-resolution images, and it usually ends up far smaller than the source.

Nothing is transmitted anywhere; the document is read and the new file assembled entirely on your device. If you want every section as its own separate file instead of one combined document, use split PDF. To throw pages away rather than keep them, delete PDF pages works from the other direction, and merge PDF joins the extracted pieces back together.

Frequently asked questions

How do I extract specific pages from a PDF?
Drop a PDF onto the tool, then type the pages you want to keep in the Pages to keep field, such as 1-3, 5, 8-10. The new document rebuilds automatically and Download PDF saves it.
What is the difference between this and splitting a PDF?
This tool produces one PDF containing every page you listed. Splitting produces many files, one per page or one per range. Use extraction when the selected pages belong together in a single document.
What happens if I ask for a page that does not exist?
The page is ignored and the tool tells you which numbers it skipped, so the rest of your selection still comes through instead of the whole thing erroring out.
Does the order I type the pages in matter?
No. Pages always come out in their original document order, whatever order you type them in. To change the sequence of pages instead, use reorder PDF pages.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. The PDF is opened and the new document is built entirely in your browser. Your file is never uploaded, never stored, and never leaves your device.
