Extract Pages from a PDF — Split PDFs Online
Need just the invoice from a 40-page statement, or one chapter from a long report? Extract exactly the pages you want into a clean new PDF — no software, no signup.
How to extract pages from a PDF
- Upload your PDF (drag & drop or browse).
- Choose Extract Pages and type the pages you want — e.g.
1,3,5-10. - Download a new PDF containing only those pages. Your upload is deleted automatically.
Why use File Forge?
- Flexible page selection: mix single pages and ranges in one go (
2,7,12-15). - Verifiably private: files are deleted right after download — and the source code is public, so you can confirm exactly what happens to your document.
- Free forever: no watermark, no account, no daily limit.
How File Forge keeps your Extract PDF Pages files private
When you use the Extract PDF Pages tool, your file is uploaded over an encrypted HTTPS connection and processed on the server, then handed straight back to you. File Forge is built privacy-first, and — because the entire codebase is open source — every claim on this page is something you can verify line by line or run yourself, rather than a marketing promise you have to take on trust.
Your file is deleted the moment you are done
The file you upload is removed from our server as soon as the Extract PDF Pages operation finishes, and the processed result is deleted the instant you download it. As a safety net, a background sweeper runs continuously and purges anything older than one hour, so nothing of yours lingers on disk. We never build a library of your documents, never resell them, and never train anything on them. There is no hidden retention and no analytics tied to your file contents.
Open source you can audit — or self-host
Most “free” online file tools ask you to trust a closed black box. File Forge is different: the complete source code is public on GitHub, so a developer can read exactly how the Extract PDF Pages tool handles uploads, confirm the deletion logic, and even run a private copy on their own machine or server. Verifiable privacy beats a privacy policy you simply have to believe.
No account, no watermark, no upsell
There is no signup, no email wall, and no credit card. File Forge never stamps a watermark on your output and never caps you at “one free file” before demanding payment. The Extract PDF Pages tool is genuinely free to use as often as you need, on any device with a web browser — no software to install and no extensions to add.
Frequently asked questions
How do I specify which pages to extract?
Commas for single pages, dashes for ranges: 1,3,5-10 gives you page 1, page 3, and pages 5 through 10 in a single new PDF.
Does extracting pages change the original PDF?
No — you get a brand-new file with just the selected pages. The original stays exactly as it was on your device.
Can I extract pages from a password-protected PDF?
Yes — first remove the password (you'll need to know it), then extract pages from the unlocked file.
