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 typeYou get
1-3,5,7Pages 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7 (5 pages)
4Page 4 only
12-20Pages 12 to 20
3,1Page 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.
