or browse your files

Files never leave your device. Everything runs in your browser, nothing touches a server — tools you've used even work offline.

Pull exact pages out of a PDF — or cut pages from it — entirely in your browser. Type a range like 1-3,7,12- and choose whether to keep or remove those pages; the rest assemble into a new document with nothing re-encoded and nothing uploaded.

How it works

  1. Drop files anywhere on the page, click to browse, or paste with ⌘V.
  2. Pick a quality or preset — or set an exact target size and let the tool find it.
  3. Compress, compare before/after, and download — individually or as a ZIP.

Page ranges by example

RangeResult with Keep
5Just page five
1-3,7Pages one to three, plus page seven
12-Page twelve to the end
1-3,12-Everything except pages four to eleven

Extract vs remove

Keep mode answers “I need these pages”: pull the signed page out of a contract, or the one relevant chapter from a manual. Remove mode answers “these pages shouldn’t be here”: strip a blank scan, an outdated appendix or a page with someone else’s data. Both produce a fresh PDF and leave the original untouched.

Splitting big scans

Scanned bundles are the classic case — a hundred-page scan where you need pages 34–41. Extraction is instant even on huge files because pages are copied, not rendered. If the extracted part is still heavy, run it through Compress PDF afterwards; scans shrink dramatically there.

Frequently asked questions

How do page ranges work?

Comma-separate pages and ranges: 1-3,7,12- means pages one to three, page seven, and everything from twelve to the end. Open-ended ranges like 12- save you from knowing the page count.

What’s the difference between Keep and Remove?

Keep extracts your selection into the new file; Remove deletes the selection and keeps everything else. The same range means opposite things, so double-check the toggle before running.

Does splitting reduce quality?

No — pages are copied as-is, without re-encoding. Only the pages you excluded are gone. Compress the result separately if you also want it smaller.

Is it private?

Yes. The document never leaves your browser — nothing is uploaded, and the server only delivers this page. That makes it safe for contracts, invoices, medical records — anything you would not email to a stranger. Want proof? Run one file through, switch your connection off, and run another — it still works.
