Split a PDF by page ranges: examples and what to expect
Upload a PDF, type the pages you want and download a new PDF that contains only those pages. The file is read and rebuilt in your browser using the open-source pdf-lib library, so the document is not sent to a server.
| You type | You get |
|---|---|
| 1-3,5,7 | Pages 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7 (5 pages) |
| 4 | Page 4 only |
| 12-20 | Pages 12 to 20 |
| 3,1 | Page 3 first, then page 1 |
Typical uses
- Sending only the signature page of a lease or contract.
- Pulling one chapter out of a long report or scanned textbook.
- Removing pages with personal information before sharing a statement.
Tips and mistakes
- Page numbers mean the position in the PDF, not the number printed on the page. A cover can make "page 1" of the book PDF page 3.
- Pages outside the document are ignored. If nothing matches, you get an "invalid range" message with the page count.
- Write ranges low to high; a reversed range such as 5-3 selects nothing.
- Password-protected PDFs may fail to open; remove the password first.
- The result is an extracted copy. Keep the original file.

Frequently asked questions
How do I indicate the pages to extract?
Write ranges and single pages separated by commas, for example 1-3,5,7. A new PDF will be generated with only those pages.
Are my files uploaded to the internet?
No. Everything happens in your browser; The PDF is not sent to any server, so it is safe for confidential documents.
Can I extract a single page?
Yes. Enter just that number (for example, 4) and you will get a PDF with that single page.
Is the original quality preserved?
Yes. Pages are copied without recompressing, keeping text, images and formatting intact.
Does the order I type the pages control the order in the new PDF?
Yes. Pages are copied in the order you list them, so 3,1 produces a PDF with page 3 first and page 1 second.
Can I split a scanned PDF?
Yes. Scanned pages are images inside the PDF and are copied as they are. Only password-protected files are likely to cause problems.
