What this tool does
A new PDF is assembled from even pages only, keeping each copied page at its original size and orientation.
Document mode keeps page numbers 2,4,6…; selection mode keeps the 2nd, 4th, 6th… pages within the chosen range.
Printed page labels do not change the calculation; the first physical PDF page is always page 1.
Supported formats
Input must be a valid PDF readable by the browser libraries. Processing capacity depends on page complexity and available device memory.
