Frequently asked questions
What split modes are available?
There are three modes. Page range lets you specify exactly which pages to extract (like 1-3, 5, 7-9) generating a single PDF. Every N pages splits the entire PDF into chunks of N pages generating several files. Page by page downloads each page as an independent PDF.
Can I extract only some specific pages?
Yes. With Page range mode you can specify combinations of individual pages and ranges. For example, '2-5, 8, 10-12' will extract exactly pages 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11 and 12 into a single resulting PDF.
Does it work with large PDFs with many pages?
Yes, as long as your device has enough RAM available. For very large PDFs the processing may take a few more seconds, but there is no page limit or file size limit imposed by the tool itself.
Is the original PDF quality maintained?
Yes, completely. The tool extracts and copies the selected pages without recompressing or modifying any content. Images, fonts and visual formatting remain exactly the same as in the original PDF.
Are my PDFs sent to any server?
No, not at all. All processing happens exclusively in your local browser using the open source pdf-lib library. No PDF file leaves your device at any point, making it completely private and safe for sensitive documents.
