Step by step

How To Extract Pages From a PDF

Keep the pages you want and leave the rest behind — a new document holding only the pages you picked.

  1. 1

    Upload your PDF

    Drop in a document and every page appears as a thumbnail, with a zoom slider to size them. Files are deleted after 2 hours.

  2. 2

    Pick the pages to keep

    Click pages to select them — Shift or Cmd/Control adds more. Prefer typing? “1-10,13,14,100-” in the box does the same, and All Odd Pages / All Even Pages takes half the document in one tap. The box under “Selected pages” always mirrors what is picked.

    The Extract Pages screen on desktop: eight page thumbnails with pages 2 and 5 picked on amber plates, the click-to-select hint, the quick-pick chips, the range box showing 2,5 and the Extract pages button The picking controls up close: Selected pages chips for All Odd Pages, All Even Pages and Specific pages, the range box holding 2,5, and the Extract pages button with More options

    Extract and download

    Press Extract pages and the new document opens ready to download, share or print — everything else is left out.

  • Click pages to select

    Click a page to pick it; Shift or Cmd/Control adds more, exactly as the hint above the pages says.

  • Or type the ranges

    “1-10,13,14,100-” in the box picks exactly those pages — the box and your clicks always agree.

  • Odd or even in one tap

    All Odd Pages and All Even Pages take half the document instantly; the ? tooltips explain each.

  • Zoom the thumbnails

    The slider sizes every preview from 100% to 400%, so you can check a page before picking it.

  • Original quality kept

    Pages are copied as they are — text, images and form fields stay untouched.

  • Private by default

    No account, no watermark — and every file is automatically deleted after 2 hours.

Extract Pages — frequently asked questions

How do I keep only some pages?

Type the pages to keep — like 1-3,7 — or pick them on the cards, then save. Everything else is left out of the new PDF you download.

Is Extract Pages free?

Yes — Extract Pages is free right here in your browser, with no watermark and no sign-up. Every tool on the site works the same way.

Do I need an account to use Extract Pages?

No. Accounts are optional — they keep your credits, API keys and settings together. The tools work signed-out.

What happens to my file?

Every upload is stored under an unguessable id and deleted automatically after 2 hours. Nothing is listed, shared or emailed anywhere.

Can I run Extract Pages from the API?

Yes — every tool has a REST endpoint. An API call for this tool costs 10 credits per file; browser use stays free. See the Plans & pricing page for plans and the API page for the endpoint list.
