What Extract PDF Pages can do

The range syntax, exactly

Type 1,3-5 and you get pages 1, 3, 4, and 5 in one new file. Spaces are ignored, 5-3 is read the same as 3-5, a page listed twice is only included once, and a number past the end of the document is left out (the page tells you how many pages there are) instead of stopping the extraction. The output is always in ascending order, so typing 9,2 still produces page 2 followed by page 9.

One file out, text still text

The pages you pick are copied into a new document, not redrawn as pictures, so text stays selectable and searchable and the pages look exactly as they did. The file is named after yours with the pages added, like contract-pages-1,3-5.pdf, which keeps several sets from the same source apart.

Limitations

A PDF that asks for a password to open will not open; one that only forbids editing or printing will. The file must fit in the tab: 100 MB on desktop, 50 MB on phones and tablets. This page only pulls pages out in their existing order. If you also need to reorder, rotate, or delete, Organize PDF gives you a drag-and-drop board of page thumbnails instead.

Questions

Can I pick page ranges?

Yes. Type them as 1,3-5 (single pages and ranges can be mixed in one line), or tap the page thumbnails to tick them: the field and the thumbnails show the same selection.

Is the download really free?

Yes. No account, no trial and no watermark of ours on the file: it is made in your browser, and you can save it as many times as you like.

Are my PDFs uploaded?

No. The pages are copied into a new file in this tab; your original is not changed.

Can I also reorder or rotate the pages I pull out?

Not on this page. It only builds a new file from the pages you pick, in their original order. For reordering, rotating, or deleting too, use Organize PDF.
