Frequently asked questions

Can I extract just one page from a PDF?

Yes — enter a single page number as the range (e.g. “7”), or select the page in the Rearrange view and click Extract.

Is there a page limit?

No artificial limits. Large documents work fine; processing power comes from your own device.

Do the split files keep their quality?

Yes, pages are copied exactly — no re-rendering, no compression, text stays selectable.
