Frequently Asked Questions

Can I extract non-contiguous pages (e.g., page 1, 4, and 7)?

Currently, you can extract custom contiguous ranges (e.g., 2–5) or split all pages individually so you can select the exact pages you need.

Does splitting remove bookmarks or searchable text?

No. ToolNest preserves vector fonts, annotations, and OCR searchable text contained within the extracted pages.
