Free Online PDF Page Extractor
Need just a few pages from a large PDF? SmarterSources's Extract PDF Pages tool makes it easy to pull out exactly the pages you need and save them as a brand-new document. Whether you are preparing a proposal, sharing a section of a report, or trimming down a manual to the chapters that matter, this tool gets it done in seconds without installing anything or creating an account.
How It Works
Upload your PDF and every page appears as a visual thumbnail you can click to select. Choose the pages you want to keep using the thumbnail grid, the quick-select buttons, or a typed page range like "1, 3-5, 8." When you are happy with your selection, click "Extract Pages" and a new PDF containing only your chosen pages downloads instantly. Everything happens inside your browser, so your documents stay completely private.
Why Extract Pages Instead of Removing Them?
Extracting pages is the fastest approach when you only need a handful of pages from a large document. Rather than removing dozens of unwanted pages one by one, simply select the few you want and go. It is the flip side of our Remove Pages tool, designed for those times when it is quicker to say "I want these" than "I don't want those."
Privacy Guarantee
Your PDF never leaves your device. All page rendering and extraction happens locally in your browser using client-side JavaScript. No files are uploaded to any server, making this the most private PDF page extractor available online.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I extract specific pages from a PDF?
Upload your PDF to the tool, then click the thumbnail of each page you want to keep. You can also type a page range like "1, 3-5, 8" into the text field and click "Apply Range." Once your pages are selected, click "Extract Pages" to download a new PDF that contains only those pages.
Is there a limit on file size or number of pages?
There is no artificial limit. Since all processing runs entirely in your browser, the only constraint is your device's available memory. Most modern devices handle PDFs with hundreds of pages without any issues.
Will the extracted pages keep their original quality?
Yes. The tool copies the original page data directly into the new PDF without re-rendering or re-compressing anything. Fonts, images, vector graphics, and formatting are preserved exactly as they appear in the source document.
Can I extract pages from a password-protected PDF?
If the PDF requires a password to open, you will need to enter the password first in your PDF viewer and save an unprotected copy before using this tool. PDFs that are viewable but have editing restrictions can typically be processed normally.
What is the difference between extracting and splitting a PDF?
Extracting lets you cherry-pick any combination of pages into a single new PDF. Splitting typically divides a PDF into multiple smaller files at regular intervals or specific break points. Use extract when you want one new document with your hand-picked pages, and split when you want to break a document into several separate files.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. This tool is 100% client-side. Your PDF is processed entirely within your browser and never leaves your device. The new PDF is generated locally and downloaded directly to your computer.
