If you only need part of that long PDF, you can easily split it into individual chapters, separate pages, or remove them. That way, you're free to mark up, save, or send only what you need.

Organize pages.
You can extract PDF pages. Or you can reorder, replace, or delete them until your specific pages are organized exactly how you want them.
Split PDFs into multiple files.
Use the PDF splitter to separate one or more PDFs into multiple documents by simply specifying the number of pages, file size, or top-level bookmarks.
Customize your file.
Mix and match, reuse pages from multiple PDF documents, or separate PDF pages to customize your file with all the form fields, comments, and links included. Leave unwanted content in your original file or just delete it.
Work from anywhere.
With the Acrobat Reader mobile app, you’ve got a PDF tool that can reorder, delete, insert, or rotate PDF pages right from your mobile device.
