Quick Answer
An extract pages tool pulls the pages you choose out of a PDF and saves them as a new document. Instead of typing page numbers, you click thumbnails of the actual pages — so you always grab the right ones.
What This Tool Does
After you add a PDF, every page renders as a thumbnail. Click the pages you want to keep (a counter shows your selection), then click Extract Pages. The result is a new PDF containing exactly those pages, in the original order.
Key Features
- Visual selection — thumbnails of every page, no guessing page numbers.
- Live counter — the selection badge updates with every click.
- Original file untouched — the source PDF is never modified.
- Local processing — pages are copied in your browser.
How to Use the Extract Pages Tool
- Add your PDF.
- Wait for the thumbnails to render, then click each page you want to keep.
- Click a selected thumbnail again to deselect it.
- Click Extract Pages and download the new PDF.
Examples
A 30-page report contains the invoice on page 7 and the signature page on page 28. Click just those two thumbnails and download a two-page PDF with exactly what you need — no emailing the whole document.
Use Cases
- Sharing — send only the relevant pages of a large document.
- Bundling — pull key pages from several documents into one new file.
- Printing — print only the pages you actually need.
Tips
- The thumbnail preview covers the first 80 pages; larger documents still work — use the Split tool's ranges mode for those.
- Clicking a thumbnail toggles it — mistakes are one click to fix.
- Extracted pages keep the original text layer, so the new PDF is still searchable.
Privacy
Pages are copied locally with pdf-lib and pdf.js. Nothing is uploaded.
Conclusion
Pick pages by sight, extract them in one click, and never send a whole document again. Free and private.
