How to Extract pages from PDF using Power Automate?

We often come across a lot of big documents from which we require only a little information. Some PDF documents like contracts, legal documents, or digital books may contain hundreds or thousands of pages. At times, we might require only a few pages of these documents. In such cases, we will have to extract those PDF pages using a specific tool. But all software services are capable of doing the same.

How to automate Extract Pages from PDF?

Pages of a document can be separated out and processed further by using this feature. Let us look with a sample flow, at how we can construct a Flow to automate PDF page extraction.

Add a Trigger for the Flow

You can add any trigger of choice that will pass the input PDF document to the extract action from PDF4me. In this case, let us add and configure a Onedrive trigger. Map the folder in which you expect the PDF files to arrive.

Add the Extract Pages from PDF action

Add and configure the PDF4me Connect action to Extract Pages from PDF. Specify the page numbers of the Pages you want to extract from the source PDF.

Add the action to save the Output

Since we have started with the Onedrive storage, let us add the Onedrive Create file action to save the PDF created using the extracted pages from the source file.
