A clean document from a long one.

Extract a contract appendix, a report section or a few scanned pages without changing the original file, or separate a bundle into one file per page.

Select individual pagesUse the visual page rail to choose exactly which pages belong in the new PDF.
Export a new fileDownload only the selected pages as a standalone document.
Or split into many filesProduce one PDF per page, or fixed-size groups, and download them together as a zip.
Keep the page orderYour selection stays in document order so the extracted PDF reads naturally.

A clear workflow.
In three steps.

01

Open your PDF.

Load the document whose pages you want to separate.

02

Choose the pages.

Turn on page selection and click the thumbnails you want to keep, or pick how to group the split.

03

Download the result.

Export the selection as one PDF, or the separate files as a zip, without a watermark.

Two different jobs called splitting.

Splitting means two things and mixing them up wastes time. Extracting produces one new PDF containing the pages you picked, which is what you want when sending a single chapter, appendix or signature page. Splitting into parts produces many PDFs from one, delivered as a zip, which is what you want when a bundle needs to become one file per invoice, per form or per page.

Both are available here and both are explicit. For extraction, select pages in the rail or type a range such as 2, 5-9. For parts, choose one file per page or fixed-size groups. Part filenames record the pages they came from, so part-2-pages-3-4.pdf tells you what is inside without opening it.

Pending edits are applied to every part, not just the first, and if one of them fails the download is stopped rather than delivering a bundle that looks complete but quietly lost an edit.

Questions about this tool.

The things worth knowing before you edit the document.

What is the difference between extracting and splitting?

Extracting gives you one new PDF containing the pages you selected. Splitting gives you several PDFs from one document, downloaded together as a zip, either one file per page or in fixed-size groups.

How do I select the pages I want?

Click thumbnails in the page rail, shift-click for a contiguous range, or type a range such as 1-3, 5. The selection always stays in document order, so the extracted file reads naturally.

Do my edits apply to the split files?

Yes. Any pending edits are applied to every part before the zip is built. If an edit cannot be applied, the download is stopped and the failure reported, rather than handing you a bundle that silently lost a change.

Does splitting change the original PDF?

No. The upload is never modified. Splitting and extracting both produce new files from copies, so the original document is still available in the editor afterwards.

More ways to finish the PDF.

Switch tools whenever the document asks for a different kind of change.
