How to extract pages from a PDF
Clicking thumbnails covers the basic job. These sections cover the rest: single pages, ranges, pages that are not next to each other, and when deleting or splitting is the better tool for what you are trying to do.
Open the PDF and see every page
Drag one PDF onto the upload card, or click it to browse. Files can be up to 50 MB.
Each page is drawn as a thumbnail, so you can find the section you need by eye instead of counting page numbers first.
Click the pages you want to keep
Tap a thumbnail and an orange tick covers it. Tap again to drop it from the selection. Nothing happens to the document until you press Extract, so you can change your mind freely.
Extract a single page from a PDF
Click one thumbnail and press Extract. You get a one-page PDF, and the original stays exactly as it was on your disk. This is the fastest way to send someone just the signature page or just the invoice.
Extract a range of pages
Click the first page you want, then the rest of the run. Chapters, appendices, and a single month out of a long statement all work this way. The button shows the count so you can check it before saving.
Pull out pages that are not next to each other
The selection does not have to be one continuous block. Picking pages 2, 9, and 15 gives you one three-page PDF with those pages in that order. This is how most people build a short packet out of a long report.
Extract pages into one file, not many
Everything you pick lands in a single PDF. If what you actually want is a separate file for each page, that is the split tool's each-page mode rather than this one.

Change the order of the extracted pages
The new file follows the order the pages had in the source, no matter which one you clicked first. Save the extract, then rearrange it if you need a different sequence.

Extract pages or delete the rest
The two are the same job from opposite ends. When you are keeping most of the document, deleting a few pages is less clicking. When you are keeping a handful out of a hundred, extracting wins.

Build a packet from several documents
Extract the pages you need from each source, then join the results into one document in the order you want. This is the usual way to assemble a submission out of a stack of reports.

Does extracting lose quality
No. Pages are copied whole, with their text, fonts, and images intact, so nothing is redrawn and nothing softens. The new file is usually much smaller simply because it holds fewer pages.
What happens to form fields and links
Page content comes across as it is, and most annotations survive. Interactive form fields can be flattened when pages move into a new document, and a link that pointed at a page you left behind has nowhere to go. Fill a form before extracting from it.
Extract pages from a password-protected PDF
A locked file cannot be read until the password is removed, so the upload card declines it and offers a link instead. Unlock it first, then pick your pages from the plain copy.

Extract pages without uploading the document
The pages are read and the new file is written inside your browser tab. Nothing is sent to a server, so a confidential report never leaves the machine you are sitting at.
Extract PDF pages on a phone
The page runs in a mobile browser with no app to install, and tapping thumbnails works well with a finger. Drawing every thumbnail of a very long document is the one step that takes a moment on a phone.
Extracting PDF pages, answered
How do I extract pages from a PDF?
Drop your PDF, click each page you want to keep, then press Extract. A new PDF holding only those pages downloads right away.
Are extracted pages high quality?
The pages are copied across as they are: nothing is re-rendered and no image is re-encoded, so text stays sharp at any zoom.
Can I extract pages out of order?
The new file keeps the order the pages had in the source, whatever order you clicked them in. To change the sequence, reorder the extracted file afterwards.
Do I get one file or one file per page?
One file holding every page you picked. If you want each page as its own separate PDF, the split tool has an each-page mode that does exactly that.
Does the extracted PDF have a watermark?
No, and there is no watermark on any plan. What downloads is your chosen pages and nothing added.
Is there a daily limit?
The free plan covers 10 finished files a day, shared across every tool, and it resets at midnight UTC. No signup either way. The extraction runs on your own machine, and files can be up to 50 MB.
