Step-by-step guide
- Step 1: Select the PDF you wish to split.
- Step 2: Enter the "Start page" and "End page" numbers in the control fields.
- Step 3: Click "Create PDF" to instantly generate and download the extracted range.
Divide large PDF documents into focused sections. Specify your desired start and end page numbers to create a clean, standalone PDF containing only the selected range.
The tool validates your inputs against the total page count and alerts you if numbers are out of bounds or if start exceeds end.
For non-consecutive page selections, use our "Extract Pages" tool which supports comma-separated lists and disjoint ranges.
Content, vector drawings, text, and embedded fonts within the extracted pages are fully preserved.
PDF Toolbox is engineered with a strict browser-first architecture. All file operations execute entirely in your local browser sandbox via modern WebAssembly and JavaScript engines. No file bytes or sensitive document data are ever uploaded, buffered, or stored on external servers or cloud infrastructure. Memory buffers are cleared immediately when you finish or close your tab.
