Range selection reduces processing time and storage when the entire PDF is not needed. Continuous ranges and individual pages can be combined in one field.
Four simple steps
- 1
Load the PDF and choose Custom range.
- 2
Enter a selection such as 1-3, 5, 8-10.
- 3
Confirm format, resolution, and JPEG quality when applicable.
- 4
Convert and save the sequentially numbered images.
Tips for the best result
- Page numbering starts at 1 and cannot exceed the document total.
- Reversed ranges are detected before conversion.
- Three-digit page numbers keep output filenames in order.
How to write a selection
The field accepts continuous ranges like 1-3, single pages like 5, and comma-separated combinations such as 1-3, 5, 8-10. Spaces around commas and hyphens are ignored; use standard half-width digits.
Pages selected more than once are consolidated automatically, and the output is sorted by page number.
Saving time and storage
Converting an entire long PDF takes time and produces large files. Selecting only the needed pages keeps processing short and downloads small — especially worthwhile with 3x high-resolution export.
Reading error messages
Reversed ranges, out-of-range numbers, and unreadable fragments are reported specifically before conversion. Fix just the flagged part — the rest of your input stays as typed.
Frequent selection patterns
"1" for the cover alone, "1-3" for the opening chapter, "2-4, 8-10" for excerpts — and check the displayed page total before typing the final page number.
Exporting just the cover as a JPEG to use as a document thumbnail is another handy range-selection trick.
