Extract differs from delete: it builds a new PDF with the selection without destroying the original in the session.

Mark thumbnails or type a range such as 1-3, 5, 8-10 (numbers follow the current on-screen order).

Frequently asked questions

Is the original PDF deleted?

It is never uploaded or stored on a server. In the session you can keep editing the loaded document after extracting.

How do I specify ranges?

Use commas and hyphens: 1-3, 5, 8-10. Numbering follows the current visible order (1 = first thumbnail).

How is this different from Split PDF?

Extract focuses on pulling a concrete subset (e.g. pages 2, 5, and 9). Split matches the “split / part a long PDF” intent. Today both produce one PDF with the chosen pages — no ZIP yet.

Can I extract non-consecutive pages?

Yes. Mix ranges and singles: 1-2, 8, 12-14.

Do signatures and hyperlinks survive?

Pages are copied as PDF objects. Digital signatures and some links may not survive; visual content does.
