Task<\/strong> – you need to split a PDF file or extract certain pages from a PDF file.<\/p>\n

Options<\/strong> – you can find hundreds of online sites that can do that for you.<\/p>\n

Concern <\/strong>– your files are confidential, and you’re not sure if those sites are making copies of your files for ‘other’ purposes.<\/p>\n

Practicality<\/strong> – you want to split hundreds or thousands of files, and splitting each file online is going to be veeeeeery boring.<\/p>\n

Try Easy PDF Explorer<\/a>, a Windows application that helps you split your PDF files directly on your computer.<\/p>\n

User interface<\/h2>\n

Easy PDF Explorer uses the familiar Windows Explorer interface, so you can easily navigate your folders and select your files.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Select 1 or more PDF files, and Easy PDF Explorer<\/a> will display the details of each file.\u00a0 This is one benefit of Easy PDF Explorer<\/a> – it allows you to work with batches of PDF files easily.<\/p>\n

Splitting PDFs<\/h2>\n

When you want to start splitting or extracting pages from your PDF files, click on the Extract pages<\/strong> button:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This brings up the Extract Pages<\/strong> window.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

You need to enter the folder you want to store the extracted pages in, the file naming convention, and the pages to extract.<\/p>\n

You can specify exactly which pages to extract e.g. if you want to extract the page 1 and 10, simply enter the details like this:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you want to extract the first 5 pages, enter it like this:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To extract the first 5 pages and page 10, enter it like this:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You can enter as many ‘groups’ of pages to extract as you require.\u00a0 Just separate each group using a comma symbol.<\/p>\n

What if you don’t know the number of pages the files have, and just want to extract the last 5 pages every time?\u00a0 Use the <LAST><\/strong> tag this way:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In this way, you don’t need to specify the exact page numbers to extract.\u00a0 Easy PDF Explorer<\/a> will always just extract the last 3 pages.<\/p>\n

Creating the ‘other’ file<\/h2>\n

So far, we’ve showed you how to extract specific pages from your files.\u00a0 What if you want to split a file i.e. extract the specific pages to one file, and the rest of the pages to another file?<\/p>\n

Simple.\u00a0 Just select the Extract remaining pages to another file<\/strong> item, and enter a naming convention for this file.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The pages you chose to extract will be saved in one file, and the remaining pages will be saved to another file.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s all there is to it.\u00a0 Use\u00a0Easy PDF Explorer<\/a> to extract or split pages from your hundreds or thousands of PDF files, on your<\/span> computer, securely and fast.<\/p>\n
