Extract PDF Pages
Pull specific pages out of a PDF into a brand-new file, leaving the original exactly as it was. Type the pages you want — single numbers, ranges, or a mix of the two — and the tool assembles just those pages, in the order you listed them, into one new document.

How to extract pages from a PDF
- Select your PDF file.
- Type the pages you want, like 1-3, 5, 8-10.
- Download the new PDF with just those pages.
When you'd use this
- Sharing one section — Sending chapter four rather than the entire ninety-page manual.
- A single certificate — Lifting one page out of a combined scan of several documents.
- Selective form uploads — A portal that asks only for pages 1 and 5 of a bank statement.
- Building a short version — Making a condensed document from chosen pages of a long report.
Good to know
- Ranges and singles mix freely — Write something like 1-3, 7, 12-15. Pages appear in the new file in the order you list them.
- Count the way the PDF counts — Page positions start at 1 and follow the file itself, not the page numbers printed on the paper, which often begin later.
- Your original is untouched — Extraction produces a new PDF. The file you selected is neither modified nor deleted.
- No re-encoding happens — Pages are copied whole, so text stays selectable and images keep their original quality.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from Split PDF?
Split PDF can also break a file into one PDF per page. Extract Pages always produces a single new PDF containing just the pages you list.
What if I type a page number that doesn't exist?
You'll get a clear message telling you how many pages the PDF actually has.
What is the difference between this and Split PDF?
Split PDF can break a document into one file per page. Extract gathers the pages you name into a single new file. If you want pages 2, 5 and 9 together as one document, extract is the right tool.
Can I extract pages in a different order?
Yes — pages come out in the order you type them, so writing 5, 2, 9 gives you that sequence. To rearrange a whole document, Reorder PDF Pages is quicker.
What if I type a page that does not exist?
Numbers past the end of the document are ignored, so a typo produces a shorter file rather than an error message. Check the page count of the result before passing it on.
