About The Split & Extract PDF
Sometimes you receive a massive, 100-page PDF document, but you only need to send pages 4 and 5 to a client or colleague. Sending the entire document is unprofessional and wastes bandwidth. The Split & Extract PDF tool solves this exact problem.
Unlike cloud-based PDF extractors that require you to upload your files (compromising your privacy), our tool runs 100% locally in your web browser. Utilizing the powerful pdf-lib engine, it mathematically slices your document and copies only the requested pages into a brand new PDF file, saving it instantly to your hard drive.
How to Use
- Upload a single PDF document by dragging and dropping it into the workspace.
- The tool will instantly parse the document and calculate its total page count.
- In the input box, type the specific page numbers or ranges you want to extract (for example: '1, 3, 5-10').
- Click the 'Extract & Download' button. The new, smaller PDF will be compiled locally and downloaded immediately.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my original PDF altered or deleted?
No. The tool reads your uploaded file as a 'read-only' template. It copies the pages you select and generates a brand new file, leaving your original document completely untouched.
How do I format the page ranges?
You can use commas to separate individual pages, and hyphens to define a range. For example, typing '1, 4-6, 9' will extract pages 1, 4, 5, 6, and 9.
Is this tool safe for confidential business documents?
Yes, 100%. Because the extraction process happens entirely within your device's local memory (RAM), your confidential data is never transmitted over the internet to our servers.
