🗂️ Flexible Extraction Modes

Select exact pages visually using interactive thumbnails, specify arbitrary page syntax ranges (e.g. 1-4, 7), or separate all pages into an organised ZIP archive with zero degradation of original vector clarity.

🔒 100% In-Browser Privacy

Documents are parsed, separated, and recompiled locally using WebAssembly and TypedArrays in browser memory. Sensitive financial audits, legal contracts, and personal ID files never leave your device.

How to Split and Extract PDF Pages In-Browser

  1. Upload PDF File: Drag and drop your document into the upload zone or paste directly from your clipboard using Ctrl + V.
  2. Choose Split Mode: Select Extract Selected to pick pages by thumbnail, All Pages (.zip) to explode all pages into individual files, or By Range to input custom numeric ranges.
  3. Configure Page Selection: Click thumbnail cards to toggle selection states or type page syntax (e.g. 1-3, 5, 8-10) into the range input.
  4. Extract & Save: Click Extract & Download to generate and save your new PDF document or ZIP archive immediately.

High-Performance Binary Architecture

BWTools uses client-side pdf-lib binary stream engines alongside PDF.js canvas thumbnail renderers.

Page extraction is executed by copying native object reference trees via PDFDocument.copyPages() rather than re-rasterising pages into bitmap images. Embedded fonts, selectable vector text, hyperlinks, and vector line art remain 100% lossless while maintaining minimal execution memory footprints.

Frequently Asked Questions

What range syntax is supported?

You can enter individual pages separated by commas or ranges connected with hyphens (e.g. 1-3, 5, 8-12). The tool will extract only those specific pages in numerical order into your new document.

Will extracting pages reduce text clarity or searchable OCR layers?

No. The tool performs a direct structural split of the original PDF document dictionary. Searchable text layers, embedded fonts, vector curves, and raster image resolutions remain completely intact.

Are my documents uploaded to any remote server?

Never. All PDF parsing, thumbnail rendering, page extraction, and ZIP file compilation execute 100% inside your local browser memory. Your files are never transmitted across the internet or logged anywhere.
