Extract Pages from a PDF
Upload a PDF, select the pages you want by clicking their thumbnails or typing ranges like 1-5, 8, then click Extract Pages. You get one new PDF containing only those pages, in their original order, and the source file is left unchanged.

When to extract instead of split or delete
Extract Pages is the quickest way to make a smaller copy that contains just the pages someone needs, such as the signature page of a contract or the results section of a report. It always produces one output file.
- Need several output files? Use Split PDF.
- Want to keep most of the document and drop a few pages? Delete Pages is faster.
- Need the selected pages in a different order? Extract them, then rearrange in Organize PDF.
What is kept
Extracted pages are copied without re-rendering, so text stays searchable and images keep their resolution. Links that point to pages you did not extract will no longer have a destination, and document-wide bookmarks are not carried over.
Use Cases
Sharing part of a contract
Send only the pages a supplier needs to sign instead of the full agreement.
Study packs
Pull the relevant chapters from a long textbook PDF into a shorter revision file.
Evidence for a claim
Take the two pages of a bank statement that show a payment and attach them to an insurance or refund claim.
Troubleshooting
