How to Extract Pages from PDF Free Online
Need just a few pages from a large PDF? Extracting specific pages lets you share only what's relevant, reduce file size, or separate sections of a document. PDFcraft lets you extract any pages from a PDF for free — no sign up, no watermarks.
When do you need to extract PDF pages?
Share only relevant pages
Extract the specific pages a client or colleague needs instead of sending an entire 50-page document.
Separate chapters or sections
Split a large document into individual chapters or sections, each as a separate PDF file.
Remove confidential pages before sharing
Extract the non-confidential pages into a new PDF, leaving out sensitive sections.
Reduce file size for sending
Extracting only the needed pages creates a much smaller file that is easier to email or share.
How to extract pages from PDF — step by step
Open PDFcraft Split PDF tool

Select your PDF
Click Select File and choose the PDF you want to extract pages from. The file stays on your device.
Enter the pages you want
Enter specific page numbers (like 1, 3, 5) or page ranges (like 2-8) to extract. You can combine both — for example: 1, 3-7, 10.

Extract vs Split — what is the difference?
Extract pages
Extracts specific pages into a new PDF. The original PDF is not modified. You choose exactly which pages you want.
Split into parts
Divides the PDF into multiple separate files — for example, split a 20-page PDF into 4 files of 5 pages each.
💡 Pro tip
To extract multiple separate page ranges into different files, run the Split PDF tool multiple times with different page ranges. Each run creates a separate extracted PDF.
