Share the relevant pages, in the sequence you choose
Keep only the pages you need from a longer document. Select individual pages or ranges, and arrange them in the order you want.
Prepare a document for review
Bring selected pages into a review copy, even when they are far apart in the source. You can put a summary first and supporting pages after it by entering the numbers in that order. The original document is not changed.
Get the best result
Selections follow the order you enter. Repeated pages are allowed, so 3, 1, 3 produces a three-page PDF. Password-protected documents are not supported.
A practical example
Starting point
Page selection: 5, 1-3, 5 in a PDF with at least five pages.
Expected result
A five-page PDF containing source pages 5, 1, 2, 3, and 5.
Commas separate selections. A hyphen includes every page in an ascending range, and repeated pages are allowed.
Troubleshooting and useful checks
The page number is rejected
Use numbers between 1 and the source document's page count. Printed page labels may differ from actual PDF page positions, especially when a document begins with a cover or contents pages.
A range is not accepted
Enter ascending ranges such as 2-6, not 6-2. Separate additional selections with commas, avoid a trailing comma, and enter at least one page to extract.
Frequently asked questions
A little clarity before you get started.
Does this delete pages from my original?
No. Your selection is copied into a separate download.
Does this produce one file per selected page?
No. The selected pages are combined into one downloadable PDF. To create individual files, process one page number at a time and save each result.
Can I rearrange pages with this tool?
Yes. Enter page numbers in the desired output order. For example, 3, 1, 2 creates a document whose first page was the third page of the original.
Do PDF page labels affect my selection?
No. Selections use physical page positions starting at 1. A document's printed labels, Roman numerals, or section numbering can differ from those positions.
Can I extract pages from an encrypted PDF?
Encrypted or password-protected documents are not supported. Use an authorized unencrypted copy. The tool does not remove passwords or bypass document access restrictions.
Do I need an account to use this tool?
No. This tool is free to use without signing in. An account lets you keep a list of favorite tools.
Can I use this on a phone?
Yes, with a current browser. File support, download behavior, and available memory vary by device. For large documents and images, a computer is often more comfortable.
