Extract specific pages from a PDF. 100% private — processed locally, no uploads, no signup.
Need to pull specific pages out of a PDF? PDFree saves any pages or page range as a new PDF — pick individual pages (e.g. 1, 5, 9), ranges (3–15), or a mix of both. The original file is never uploaded to any server: everything runs in your browser. Free, no signup, instant.
Click Choose files or drag your PDF into the drop zone. The total page count is shown — nothing is uploaded.
Type the pages or ranges you want: 3-7, 12, 15-20. Or click individual page thumbnails to select visually. Non-selected pages are discarded.
Click Extract Pages. The selected pages are saved as a new PDF and downloaded immediately. The original file is untouched.
A 90-page annual report contains the financial tables you need on pages 44–52. Extract those 9 pages into a standalone PDF to share with your finance team.
Legal submissions may need specific exhibits as separate attachments. Extract each exhibit into its own PDF from the full case file.
A design portfolio or photography book in PDF form can have individual project pages extracted as separate showcase files.
A form that ends with a blank page or a misprint can be fixed by extracting all pages except the problematic one into a clean new PDF.

Enter pages and ranges separated by commas: 1, 3-7, 12, 15-20. Spaces are optional. Ranges are inclusive — 3-7 extracts pages 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7.
Split has richer selection options (odd pages, even pages, halves, visual thumbnail selection) and can produce multiple separate files. Extract is simpler — enter a range, get one PDF. Use whichever fits your workflow.
Yes. Pages are copied at the PDF object level — fonts, images, links, and formatting are identical to the originals.
No. Encrypted PDFs cannot be modified without the password. Remove the password first, then extract the pages.
No. You can extract any number of pages from a PDF of any size, as long as your browser has enough memory to hold the file.
Type the page number in the range field — for example 5 to extract only page 5. The result is a new PDF containing just that one page. All formatting, images, and links are preserved exactly as they appear in the original.
Yes. Scanned PDFs are images embedded in a PDF container — extraction works identically to any other PDF. The pages are copied at the object level, so the scan quality is completely unchanged in the output file.
No. PDFree reads your file in your browser's memory and creates a new PDF with the selected pages. The original file on your device is never modified — it stays exactly as it was.
PDFree is a free online PDF page extractor — extract pages from PDF documents with no account, no upload, no installation required. Save any selection of pages from a PDF into a new file instantly inside your browser. All text, images, links, and formatting are preserved in the extracted pages.
