How to extract PDF page without programs in macOS

Managing files from our computer is an action that most of us perform daily, we already have a number of options to be able to create, manage or share documents with other people or in other places such as storage spaces in Cloud..

 

 

The use of PDF files has become one of the most functional and simple ways since these types of files are compatible with most operating systems and their security options are advanced. But it happens that we can have a PDF file with numerous pages and we need to extract only one or some of them, this process may be possible through third-party applications.

 

However, macOS offers us a simple way to be able to extract a PDF page without programs on Mac, to be able to create this file quickly without having to resort to other programs..
