Split PDF
Guide & FAQGuide: Split PDF
Open a PDF and pick how to split it. The tool is free and unlimited: no daily limit, no file-size cap, no sign-up and no watermark.
Three ways to split
- By ranges. Type pages like 1-3, 5, 8-. Each range becomes its own PDF. Tick the box to combine all ranges into a single PDF instead.
- Every N pages. Set N to 1 for one file per page, or to 10 for chunks of ten pages. The last file takes whatever is left.
- Extract selected pages. A thumbnail grid appears. Tap the pages you want, or use Odd, Even and Invert, and save them as one new PDF.
Downloading
One result downloads as a PDF. Several results download together as a ZIP file, named after your original file. A line above the button always tells you exactly what you will get, for example "3 files: pages 1-3, 5, 8-10".
Good to know
- Your files are processed inside your browser tab and are not uploaded. Nothing is sent to a server.
- Bookmarks and form fields are not carried into the split files; page content is.
- Password-protected PDFs need to be unlocked first.
FAQ
How do I split a PDF into single pages?
Choose Every N pages and set N to 1. You get one PDF per page in a ZIP.
What range format works?
Numbers and dashes separated by commas, for example 1-3, 5, 8-. An open end such as 8- means up to the last page.
Is there a page or size limit?
No limit from us. Very large files depend on your device memory, and the tool warns you first.
Does it upload my PDF?
No. Splitting is done in your browser tab.
Can I split a protected PDF?
Not until you remove the password in a PDF reader. The tool shows a clear message instead of failing silently.
