Extract Pages
Save selected pages as a new PDF.
How to extract pages
- Upload your PDF
Drop your PDF onto the page or click 'Select files'. All pages appear as thumbnails.
- Select pages to keep
Tap the pages you want in your new PDF. Selected pages are highlighted with a checkmark.
- Extract and download
Click 'Extract Pages'. A new PDF containing only your selected pages downloads immediately.
Extract Pages is the quickest way to pull a specific section out of a longer document — a single chapter from a book, the signature page from a contract, or the diagrams from a technical report.
How it works
The tool loads every page as a visual thumbnail. You tap the ones you want, and the result is a new PDF containing only those pages in their original order. The source file is never modified.
When to use Extract vs Remove
If you want to keep most of a document and trim a few pages, use Remove Pages — it is faster to deselect a few. If you want a small slice of a large document, Extract Pages is the right choice — tap only what you need.
Frequently asked questions
