Take the pages you need out of a PDF

No. Everything happens in your browser, and this site has no way to receive your file.

Yes. Open this page, then disconnect from the internet. With the connection off, you can still choose a file and save the result.

For the first few seconds after the page opens, it is still fetching the parts it needs, so wait a moment before disconnecting. Reloading the page needs the connection again.

Note that opening a PDF that does not embed its fonts fetches the character tables needed to show the text, which needs a connection — common with Japanese PDFs. If you have a data-saving setting turned on, nothing is fetched ahead of time either, so a connection is needed then too.

Yes. This tool copies the pages you keep into a new PDF. The other common approach — deleting pages from the original and saving it again — reduces the page count but can leave the text and images of those pages inside the file. When you are sending someone part of a contract or a quote, that difference matters.

This tool works a page at a time. Cropping a PDF usually just narrows the visible area, and the text outside the frame stays in the file. If there is something you need gone, drop the whole page.

Write it as "1-3, 7, 10-12". Spaces are fine, and a backwards range like "7-3" is read as pages 3 to 7.

No. Even a PDF that opens without a password may carry a permissions lock. In that case the tool stops before saving and tells you so. Remove the protection first, then try again.

Up to 200MB and 2000 pages. Even a 2000-page PDF opens in about a second, though the thumbnails take around 40 seconds to fill in (they appear from the top). You can type the page numbers without waiting for them. Very large files may not open on a device with little free memory.

Usually. Things shared across pages, such as fonts, stay in the file, so the saving is less than the proportion of pages removed — and if you keep nearly every page the result can come out about the same size, or a little larger. The before and after sizes are shown when it finishes.

No. Bookmarks, form fields, attachments and document metadata are not carried over, and links pointing at dropped pages are removed. Those are exactly the things that drag a dropped page's contents along with them, and removing them for real comes first. Links within a kept page, and links that open a URL, stay.

Yes — the PDF is written in the order shown on screen, and the order is spelled out on screen whenever it is not simply ascending. Note that retyping the range resets it to ascending page numbers.

Every feature, as many times as you like. There is no daily cap, nothing changes if you sign up, and you will never be asked to pay later.

There is a limit on file size, but it comes from what a browser can handle at once. The work runs on your own device, so there is nothing for us to meter. The exact figures are in the other answers on this page.

Yes. Please keep the following in mind.

• A PDF with many pages can take a long time, or stop partway.
• Keep this page open while it works. Switching to another app stops it.
• Saved files go to the Files app. To put them in Photos, use "Share" next to the download button.
