How to Create a Single-Page PDF File From a Multi-Page PDF File

Knowing how to create a single-page PDF from a multi-page PDF yields a number of benefits, including the ability to protect potentially sensitive information. For example, if you have a PDF ebook for sale on your website, and want to show potential buyers just the table of contents, you need to split the multi-page PDF and create a smaller, single-page PDF file. Several services, including those you don't need to install software for, let you turn multi-page PDFs to single-page PDFs for free.

2. Click the "Split" button to initiate the split. After a pause, your browser prompts you to save or open the single-page PDF file.
3. Click the "Open" option to view the PDF, or click "Save" to save it on your computer.
