About the PDF Extractor Tool
Extraction is the precise version of splitting: instead of cutting a document into sequential chunks, you select exactly the pages you want and assemble them into a single new PDF. Pages need not be contiguous — you can pull page 3, page 17, and pages 40 through 45 into one clean file.
This is the operation you want when preparing a document for someone who should see only part of it. Redaction by removal is far safer than hoping a reader will not scroll. The tool uses pdf-lib in your browser, so the source document is never uploaded.
How to Use PDF Extractor
- Select the source PDF.
- Enter the pages you want to extract, using commas and ranges as needed.
- Press Extract to build a new document from those pages only.
- Download the result.
When to Use This Tool
- Sharing only the relevant pages of a contract with a third party
- Removing internal or confidential pages before external distribution
- Building a summary document from key pages of a longer report
- Extracting appendices or exhibits into their own file
- Assembling a reading pack from scattered pages of a textbook
Things Worth Knowing
- Extracted pages appear in the order you list them, not necessarily their original order.
- Text, images, and vector content are copied without re-encoding, so quality is identical.
- Interactive form fields and annotations may not survive extraction in all cases.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between splitting and extracting?
Splitting divides a document into multiple sequential files. Extracting selects specific pages — contiguous or not — and combines them into one new document.
Can I reorder pages while extracting?
Yes. Pages are assembled in the order you list them, so entering 5, 2, 9 produces a document in that sequence.
Will bookmarks and links survive?
Page content transfers reliably. Document-level features like bookmarks, outlines, and internal links frequently do not, since their targets change.
Is the original file altered?
No. Extraction reads the source and writes a new file. Your original stays exactly as it was.
