Extract only the pages you need
Rockspace's PDF page extractor lets you select individual pages from a PDF and create a new document containing only those pages. Instead of keeping an entire PDF, you can choose exactly which pages you want to keep and generate a separate PDF from your selection.
The tool displays page previews so you can identify the pages before extracting them. You can select one page, several pages, or all pages, then create a new PDF containing your selection.
How it works
How to extract pages from a PDF
Select the pages you need and create a separate PDF in three simple steps.

Choose your pages
Review the page previews and click the pages you want to include in the extracted document. Selected pages are clearly marked in the workspace.
Extract the PDF
Once your pages are selected, choose Extract Pages to create a new PDF containing your selection.
Common uses
Why extract pages from a PDF?
Share only relevant pages
If someone only needs a specific section of a long report or document, you can create a separate PDF containing just the relevant pages.
Extract a chapter
Select the pages belonging to a chapter, section, or appendix and save them as their own PDF.
Create a focused document
Remove the pages you do not need from the copy you plan to share, print, study, or reference.
Extract a single page
You can select just one page and create a new one-page PDF from the original document.
Page selection
Choose exactly what goes into the new PDF
Every page is displayed as a preview inside the workspace. Clicking a page toggles its selection, making it easy to see which pages will be included before you create the output document.
The selection counter in the sidebar shows how many pages you've chosen compared with the total number of pages in the source PDF.
Original document
Your source PDF is kept separate
Extracting pages creates a new PDF rather than changing the original document. The extracted file contains the pages you selected while the source file remains available on your device.
Original page order
Selected pages are kept in their original document order when the extracted PDF is created.
How the tool works
How the extracted PDF is created
The PDF is first loaded so the individual pages can be displayed as previews. When you extract the selection, the original PDF is loaded again and the selected page indexes are copied into a new PDF document.
The new document is then saved and prepared as a PDF file for download. The extracted document uses the selected pages in their original order.
The current implementation performs the PDF preview and extraction in the browser using PDF.js and pdf-lib.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is PDF page extraction?
PDF page extraction means creating a new PDF from selected pages of an existing PDF. Instead of using the entire source document, you choose the pages that should appear in the new file.
Can I extract just one page?
Yes. Select one page in the page grid and choose Extract Page. The resulting PDF will contain that single selected page.
Can I extract multiple pages?
Yes. Select as many pages as you need. The sidebar keeps track of the number of selected pages before you create the new PDF.
Can I select all pages?
Yes. The Select all button selects every page in the loaded PDF.
Does extracting pages change my original PDF?
No. The extraction process creates a separate PDF from the selected pages. The source PDF itself is not rewritten.
What order will the extracted pages have?
The selected pages remain in their original order from the source PDF when the new document is generated.
What happens after extraction?
The generated PDF is automatically downloaded. A Download Again button also appears in the workspace so you can download the generated file again.
