Extract parts from a PDF using table-of-contents
Many professionally-produced PDFs contain a detailed table of contents. Using PDFExplode, you can extract out any section into its own PDF. Further, PDFExplode will preserve any sub-table of contents within the exported section.
Easy 3 Steps to Select, Mark, and Export
You can also rename the selected TOC entries prior to export. For example, you may want to add a "Chapter" prefix or remove any unwanted characters. These TOC edits do not modify the original PDF.
