What this tool does to your file
Extracting pages here is a change to the document's page tree rather than a re-render: the pages you pick are the same objects they always were, so selectable text, links and form fields all survive, and page sizes are untouched. Your file is read in your browser to draw the thumbnails, so the pages appear while the upload is still in progress and nothing has to be rendered on a server for you to see them. Click a page to keep it and click again to drop it: once you have picked something, the pages you did not pick grey out, so you can see what you are about to lose before you commit to it. The pages come back in the order the document had them, whatever order you clicked in, because a page's place in a document is not something a selection reorders. At least one page has to be dropped, since keeping all of them would simply hand back the file you uploaded. One file per job. If it is easier to name the pages you want gone than the ones you want, use Remove PDF pages instead: it is the same grid, read the other way round.
What happens to your files
- No account needed — Every tool works as a guest. Signing in raises the limits and keeps your files together, but nothing asks you to register before you get a result.
- It runs in your browser — There is nothing to install and nothing to keep up to date. Files travel to our servers over an encrypted connection, and come back the same way.
- Your files stay yours — Files and results stay in your account until you delete them. Files from a guest session that is never linked to an account are removed automatically after a period of inactivity.
- Size limits, stated up front — Up to 10 MB per file as a guest, and up to 25 MB signed in. You see the limit before you upload, not after.
