FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to common questions about the Extract PDF Pages.

What does Extract PDF Pages do?

It saves only the pages you choose from a PDF into a brand new, standalone file.

Is Extract PDF Pages free to use?

Yes. It's free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on how many files you extract from.

Is my file safe when I use this tool?

Yes. Your PDF is read and rebuilt entirely in your browser using a small PDF library loaded from this site — it's never uploaded to a server.

How do I specify which pages to keep?

List pages and ranges separated by commas, like "1,3,5-7" — that keeps pages 1, 3, and 5 through 7, in that order. You can also just click the pages you want in the preview instead of typing.

Can I pick pages by clicking instead of typing?

Yes. Every page shows as a thumbnail in the live preview — click one to add it to the pages you keep, click it again to remove it. The "Pages to keep" field updates to match.

What's the difference between this and Split PDF?

Extract PDF Pages always produces one new PDF with just the pages you list. Split PDF can also split every single page into its own separate file, bundled as a ZIP.

Does extracting change the content of the pages?

No. Each kept page is copied exactly as it appears in the original — nothing is redrawn, compressed or altered.

Can I use Extract PDF Pages on my phone?

Yes. The page is fully responsive and works on mobile, tablet and desktop browsers alike.

Does Extract PDF Pages have any limitations?

It works on standard PDF files; a password-protected PDF needs to be unlocked first with the Unlock PDF tool before pages can be extracted.
