How can I extract specific pages from a large PDF without using Adobe Acrobat Pro? - SteveSmith23 - 04-10-2025
Yes, you can easily extract specific pages from a large PDF without using Adobe Acrobat Pro. You can try the 2 best ways to split your PDF file without using Adobe Acrobat Pro. The first way is free.
Free Method Using a Web Browser (No Software Needed)
Steps:
- Open Google Chrome (or any modern browser).
- Drag and drop the PDF into a new browser tab — it will open in the built-in PDF viewer.
- Click the print icon or press Ctrl + P (Command + P on Mac).
- Under Destination, choose Save as PDF.
- Under Pages, select Custom and enter the specific page numbers you want to extract (e.g., 2-4, 6, 10-12).
- Click Save. Choose your location, and it will create a new PDF with only those pages.
Keep in mind:
This method works best for small- to medium-sized files.
You must know the page numbers you want to extract.
It works offline and doesn’t require any sign-up or tools.
Paid method using the OSTtoPSTAPP PDF Split Tool (software needed)
