What can you do with Split PDF?

Splitting saves part of a PDF as new files — for example, sending only one chapter of a report, separating a stack of scanned documents, or saving every page as its own file. Pages are copied as they are, so the quality does not change.

Three ways to split

MethodExampleResult
By page ranges1-3, 4-6, 7-3 PDFs: pages 1-3, pages 4-6, and page 7 to the end
Every N pages2 (10-page file)5 PDFs with 2 pages each; enter 1 to save every page separately
Extract pages into one PDF1, 3, 5-81 PDF with pages 1, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8

When the result is more than one file, they are downloaded together as a ZIP file. Each file is named after the original and the pages it contains, e.g. report-1-3.pdf.

How to use

  1. Click "Choose PDF file" or drag a file onto the page.
  2. Pick a method and enter page numbers, or click pages in the preview (Shift+click selects a range). Highlighted pages are included; when splitting into several files, each page shows which file it goes to.

FAQ

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. The PDF files are read and processed entirely in your browser with JavaScript. Nothing is sent to our server, so it also works for confidential documents.

How do I save every page as a separate PDF?

Choose "Every N pages" and enter 1. You will get one PDF per page, downloaded together as a ZIP file.

How do I open the ZIP file?

On Windows and macOS, double-click it. On iPhone, open it in the Files app; most Android file managers can open ZIP files too.

Why is a password-protected PDF rejected?

Encrypted PDFs cannot be edited without the password. Open the file with its password in your PDF reader, save or print a copy without protection (if you are allowed to), then use that copy.
