How to split a PDF or extract specific pages on Windows
You don't need special software to split a PDF or extract specific pages on Windows. FernPDF runs entirely in Edge or Chrome on Windows: open the tool, drop your file, download the result. Pages are sliced locally, ideal for pulling one exhibit out of a long confidential filing.
No desktop installer, no admin rights, no paid software. It works on locked-down work laptops because it's just a web page. Windows 10 and 11 are both fine.
