Extract selected pages from a PDF — create a clean new file

Upload a PDF, choose the pages you need, and download a new PDF that contains only those pages. Ideal for job portals, university submissions, and forms that require only a few pages.

Extract Pages From PDF

Tip: Use Split PDF for very large documents, then extract from the smaller file for faster processing.

How it works

This tool loads your PDF locally with pdf-lib, copies only the pages you specify, and generates a new PDF for download. It is ideal when you need to submit only selected pages to a portal or share a short excerpt.

  • Use page ranges like 1-5 or mixed selections like 2, 6-8, 11.
  • All processing happens in your browser. Your file is not uploaded.
  • Works best for typical PDFs. Extremely large scanned PDFs may be slower due to file size.

Extract Pages From PDF: Save Specific Pages as a New File

When you only need a few pages from a large PDF — a single certificate, one chapter, or key supporting evidence — extracting is faster and cleaner than splitting the whole file. Choose the pages you need and download them as a standalone PDF.

How to extract PDF pages

  1. Upload your PDF.
  2. Enter the page numbers you want to extract — individual pages (e.g., 3, 7, 12) or a range (e.g., 5–10).
  3. Click Extract — a new PDF containing only those pages downloads immediately.

Frequently asked questions

Does the extracted PDF keep its original formatting?
Yes. The extracted pages are identical to the originals — same fonts, images, and layout. Nothing is re-rendered.
Can I extract non-consecutive pages?
Yes — enter comma-separated page numbers like 1, 4, 9 to extract non-adjacent pages into a single output PDF.
Is my document private?
All processing runs locally in your browser. Your file is never uploaded or stored anywhere.
