Extract Pages from PDF in Java

Static Convenience Methods

When extracting a page range you can use the SetOfIntegerSyntax to define multiple ranges to extract into the output file.

//Extract all pages between rangeStart and rangeEnd inclusive
PdfPageExtraction.extractPageRange(new File("/path/to/input.pdf"), new File("/path/to/output.pdf"), rangeStart, rangeEnd);

//Extract all pages defined by the page range string using the SetOfIntegerSyntax
PdfPageExtraction.extractPageRange(new File("/path/to/input.pdf"), new File("/path/to/output.pdf"), stringPageRange);

//Extract a single page
PdfPageExtraction.extractSinglePage(new File("/path/to/input.pdf"), new File("/path/to/output.pdf"), singlePageNumber);
