Last updated: June 17, 2026
A PDF page extractor is a document assembly utility that splits selected pages out of a source PDF to construct a new document. Using structural page copying, it maintains fonts and resources for selected pages while omitting the rest.
Extract specific pages from your PDF file. Fast, free, and secure browser-based document generation.

How it works
When you select a PDF, it is loaded into the pdf-lib document instance.
The page range you enter is parsed into a list of 1-indexed page numbers.
The script creates a new empty PDF document, and then calls newPdfDoc.copyPages(sourcePdf, indices) to copy the selected page structures without losing fonts, forms, or metadata.
These copied pages are appended to the new PDF, saved, and rendered as a downloadable local Blob file.
Local Security. Processing happens locally in your browser. No files are transferred over the internet.
