Extract pages from a PDF
Extracting pages from a PDF is a subset of splitting: you want a specific set of pages as a standalone document rather than splitting the whole file. The use case is common — extract the signature page from a contract, pull the exhibits from a motion, isolate one deposition section from a larger transcript.
PrepFile's page range mode handles this directly. Enter the pages you want (e.g. "15-22" for a single range, or "15-22,45" to grab a range plus a single page), and the tool produces one PDF with exactly those pages, in order.
The tool uses pdf-lib to copy the selected pages into a new document. Content is preserved verbatim — the same pixels, fonts and annotations as the source.

Extracting a page range
- Open the PDF Splitter tool.
- Drop your PDF and select "Split by page ranges".
- Enter your range: e.g. "15-22" for pages 15 through 22.
- Click Split PDF. A ZIP downloads with one PDF containing those pages.
- If you only entered one range, the ZIP contains a single file — just unzip it.
Questions
Can I extract non-consecutive pages?
Yes. Enter them as comma-separated ranges: "1,5,10-15" gives you page 1, page 5, and pages 10 through 15.
Are the page numbers in the extracted PDF renumbered?
The physical pages in the output document are re-indexed from 1. Any internal page numbers printed in the document text or headers are unchanged — they still show their original numbers.
What if I enter a page number that doesn't exist?
Ranges are clamped to the document's actual page count. A range with a start beyond the last page is skipped.
