About this tool

Need to send just one page of a contract or upload only the chapter you were asked for? Extract those pages into a new PDF without touching the original.

“Split all” gives you one PDF per page, and “By ranges” creates several parts at once, like 1-10, 11-20 and 21-30. When several files are created, you can download them together as a ZIP.

Pages are copied without quality loss and everything happens in your browser.

Frequently asked questions

How do I extract a single page from a PDF?

Choose “Extract pages”, tap the page you want (or type its number) and press “Extract pages”.

How do I write ranges?

Separate pages with commas and use a hyphen for intervals. For example, “1-3, 5, 8-10” includes pages 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 9 and 10.

Is my original PDF changed?

No. New files are always created; your original document stays untouched.
