Extract Pages from PDF
Pull out specific pages from a PDF and save them as a brand-new file in seconds. Free, no signup, no uploads — it works in your browser.
Everything runs inside your browser — your file is never uploaded to a server.
About this tool
This tool lets you pick exactly the pages you need from a larger PDF and save them as a standalone file. Type a page range like 3-7, 12 or list individual pages, and the tool builds a fresh document containing only those pages while leaving your original file untouched. It's ideal when you only need chapter two of a report, a single invoice from a bundled statement, or a handful of slides from a long deck. Everything happens locally using pdf-lib, so a confidential 300-page contract never leaves your computer just because you need pages 40 through 45. The extracted file keeps the original formatting, images and text quality, and you can preview page thumbnails before confirming your selection so there's no guesswork about which pages end up in the new document.
How to use this tool
1. Upload your PDF
Drag in the PDF file you want to pull pages out of.
2. Choose the pages
Enter a page range or list, or select thumbnails directly.
3. Preview the selection
Check the pages that will be included in the new document.
4. Download the new PDF
Save the extracted pages as a standalone file to your device.
Why use this tool
Sending an entire document when someone only needs three pages wastes bandwidth and exposes information that isn't relevant. This tool lets you isolate exactly the content that matters — a single chapter, an invoice, a signed page — and share only that, keeping the rest of the source document private and your files smaller and easier to manage.
Tips & best practices
- Use comma-separated ranges like 1-2,5,9-10 to grab multiple sections in a single pass.
- Preview thumbnails first if the PDF has unusual page ordering, since page numbers in the file may not match printed numbers.
- Extract pages before emailing large PDFs to shrink attachment size and share only what's relevant.
Common use cases
- Pulling a single invoice out of a multi-page monthly statement.
- Sharing only the relevant chapter of a textbook with a study group.
- Extracting a signed page from a contract for a separate archive.
- Isolating a few slides from a long presentation deck for a quick recap.
- Saving just the results section of a long scientific report.
