Tutorial: Extract Odd Pages or Even Pages Only from PDF
The key to extract odd pages or even pages from PDF is to choose "All odd pages" or "All even pages" when selecting pages. Let's move on for more details.
Note: Before we get started, please make sure you’ve downloaded and installed the latest version of PDFMate PDF Converter Professional.
Step 1.Add the PDF File to PDFMate PDF Converter Professional
Click button “Add PDF” on the upper left. A pop-up window will enable you to browse and choose files in your PC. Find the PDF file you want to extract pages from and then click button “Open” to add it to PDFMate PDF Converter Professional.
Step 2.Select Page Range
Click the word “All” in the “Selected Pages” column. There will be an inverted triangle on the right. Click the inverted triangle and choose “All odd pages” or "All even pages".
Step 3.Choose Output Format
Click on the output format (EPUB, TEXT, IMAGE, HTML, SWF, PDF, WORD) you want to convert to. Here we choose PDF as the output format. You can also choose any other formats mentioned above.
Step 4.Confirm Output Path
On the bottom, you can customize the output path. Click button “Output Folder” and then click icon “…” to choose the folder that you want the extracted files to be saved in.
Note: Click “Advanced Settings” on the upper right, you can have further output settings, such as layout, OCR, security (password setting), and etc.
Step 5.Find the Converted Files
Click button “Convert”, all the pages you selected in Step 2 will be extracted to the output folder you customized in Step 4.
In other words, If you choose "All odd pages" in Step 2, you will extract odd pages only from the PDF. Similarly, if you choose "All even pages", all the pages extracted from the PDF will be even pages only.
Now that you've learnt to separatedly extract the odd pages and even pages from PDF, you can easily duplex-print a large PDF file even with a printing machine that doesn’t support duplex print mode.
