Extract PDF PagesRight in Your Browser
Pull exactly the pages you need out of a PDF — type a range like "1-3,5" and get a new document containing just those pages, in that order. Ideal for sending one section of a long report without sharing the rest.

About the format
Extracting PDF pages builds a new document from a chosen subset of pages — "1-3,5" — copying each selected page and its resources unchanged from the source.
- PDF has been an open ISO standard (ISO 32000-1) since 2008, fifteen years after Adobe created it in 1993 — its page-tree design lets tools address and copy individual pages precisely.
- Extraction never modifies the source file: the selected pages are copied into a brand-new PDF and the original stays untouched.
- Extracting is also how you delete pages from a PDF — extracting "1-3,5-10" from a 10-page file is the same as removing page 4.
About this conversion
Extracting pages is the precision tool of PDF editing: from a 40-page report you send pages 3 to 7; from a scanned bundle you pull the one certificate; from a bank statement you share the single page a landlord asked for — without handing over everything else the file contains. That last point is the quiet privacy win: sharing a subset means the rest of the document was never in the copy at all.
The range syntax does the work. "1-3,5" produces pages 1, 2, 3 and 5; commas combine single pages and ranges; and the output follows the order you type, so "4-6,1" deliberately reorders — putting an appendix ahead of a cover page if that's what you need. Each selected page is copied losslessly with its fonts and images, and your original file is never modified: extraction always builds a brand-new PDF.
Extraction is also the standard way to delete pages from a PDF, just phrased positively: to remove page 4 from a 10-page document, extract "1-3,5-10". It pairs naturally with the neighboring tools — Split PDF when every page should become its own file, Merge PDF to combine extracts back into new arrangements.
Everything happens in your browser via pdf-lib: the file is parsed, pages are copied, and the new PDF is assembled on your own device. For the contracts, records and statements this tool typically handles, that means no server ever holds a copy of any page — selected or not.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I write the page range?
Combine single pages and ranges with commas: "1-3,5" keeps pages 1, 2, 3 and 5; "2" keeps just page 2; "4-6,1" produces pages 4, 5, 6 followed by page 1 — the output follows the order you type.
What happens to the pages I don't extract?
Nothing — your original PDF is never modified. The tool builds a brand-new document containing only the pages you asked for, and the source file stays untouched on your device.
Can I use this to remove pages from a PDF?
Yes — extracting is deleting in reverse. To drop page 4 from a 10-page file, extract "1-3,5-10" and the result is the same document without page 4.
Is it safe to convert PDF documents online?
Yes. Unlike traditional online converters, this tool never uploads your files. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so PDF documents never leave your device — you can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works.
Every conversion runs 100% in your browser — zero files uploaded, ever.

Who we are — and what we refuse to do
We're a small team that got tired of "free" converters treating your files as the product.
So we built Converting Free the only way we'd trust ourselves: the whole toolbox — image, document and archive converters, compressors, time-zone and unit tools, calculators and text utilities — does its work on your device. Open your browser's network tab while you convert something; you'll watch nothing leave.
We don't run ads, we don't set tracking cookies, and we don't operate a server that stores files. That isn't a privacy-policy promise — it's how the site is engineered. There is simply nowhere for your data to go.
Why we built it
Search for "convert X to Y" and the top results usually want something from you before they'll lift a finger:
- —Your file, uploaded to a server you know nothing about
- —Your patience, spent on queues, captchas and "premium speed" upsells
- —Your data, harvested by the trackers stacked beneath the ads
We think a converter should be a tool, not a trade.
Ours takes nothing from you: no uploads, no accounts, no tracking.
