Ranges versus one-file-per-page
Extracting a range is the right choice when you need a chapter, a signed page or a single form from a larger document. Splitting into individual pages suits scanned batches where each page is really a separate record.
Page content, fonts and images are copied verbatim, so the extracted pages look exactly as they did in the source.
Splitting before sharing
Sending one page instead of a 200-page document is also a privacy measure: the pages you do not extract, along with their metadata, never leave your machine.
