## About

Pull out just the pages you need. Specify a start and end page and the tool builds a new PDF containing only that range — handy for sharing a chapter, an appendix, or a single form from a long document.

Values are clamped to the document’s real page count, so you can’t extract pages that don’t exist.

## How to use

1. **Choose a PDF** — Its page count is shown.
2. **Set the range** — From and to page numbers.
3. **Extract and download** — A new PDF with only those pages.

## FAQ

### Can I extract a single page?

Yes. Set the start and end page to the same page, and the output is a single-page PDF. The tool can also split into ranges (pages 1-3, 4-6, 7-10) and extract every page as a separate file.

### Is there a file size limit?

No hard limit, but the file is processed in your browser, so practical limits depend on your device memory. 200 MB works on a modern laptop; 2 GB may struggle.

### Are the output PDFs searchable?

Yes — extracted pages keep their text layer. Scanned PDFs without a text layer are still image-only in the output (use the OCR tool to add a text layer first).
