Key takeaways
- Extract pages creates a new PDF from the pages you select.
- The original file is not changed.
- Use Split PDF for page ranges or many separate files.
- Great for sending only the relevant part of a long document.
Sharing a whole 80-page document when someone needs two pages is wasteful — and sometimes reveals more than you intended. Extracting just the relevant pages is quick and keeps the rest private.

- Click the thumbnails of the pages you want to keep.
- Use Select all, Clear or Even pages if useful.
- Click Extract and download the new PDF.
