Why pdfdots?
Private by design
All processing happens locally in your browser. Your documents are never uploaded to a server, so nobody else can see them.
No limits
No daily task caps, no file-count limits and no premium tier. Process as many PDFs as your device can handle.
Fast
There's no upload or download queue. Work starts the moment you drop a file and finishes at the speed of your own computer.
Works everywhere
Windows, Mac, Linux, iPhone, Android or Chromebook — if it has a modern browser, pdfdots runs on it. Nothing to install.
Sending only the pages that matter
Often you only need to share part of a document: the signature page of a contract, a single chapter of a manual, the one bank statement page a landlord asks for, or the relevant section of a long report. Extract Pages creates a new PDF containing just the pages you list, leaving your original file untouched.
Type page numbers separated by commas, with hyphens for ranges. 1, 3-5 keeps page 1 and pages 3 to 5, in that order, in a single file. If you want each range as a separate file instead, use Split PDF, which packs the parts into a ZIP. Page numbers count from the first page of the file, regardless of any numbers printed on the pages.
Extracted pages are copied as they are, with selectable text and full image quality, and the new file is naturally smaller than the original. Because the whole process runs in your browser, sensitive documents never leave your device — handy when you want to share one page without exposing the rest.
Extracting is also a smart first step before other tools. If you only need a few pages converted to JPG, compressed for an upload form or printed, extract them first so the next tool works on a smaller file and finishes faster. You can extract several different selections from the same PDF simply by running the tool again with different page numbers, since the original file is never modified.
