This guide shows how to extract pages from a PDF for free, entirely in your browser, so even confidential documents stay on your device.

💡 Why use Split PDF?

Extracting pages keeps your sharing tidy and private — send just the relevant page instead of a whole report, remove confidential sections before sharing, or pull pages to combine into a new document. It's the counterpart to merging.

Extract, then rebuild if needed

Splitting a PDF separates it into individual pages, so you can download just the ones you want. If you need a specific range as one file, extract the pages and then merge those back together with the Merge PDF tool.

Because both tools run in your browser, you can reorganize even sensitive contracts and records without any file ever being uploaded to a server.
