Split PDF
Split a PDF into separate files by page or custom ranges.
About Split PDF
Split PDF breaks one PDF into separate files, either page by page or by the custom ranges you define. Use it to pull a chapter out of a long document, separate bundled invoices, or hand someone only the pages they need. It runs locally in your browser, so the source PDF is never uploaded.

Frequently asked questions
Can I split by specific page ranges?
Yes. You can split every page into its own file or define custom ranges like 1-5 and 6-10 to control exactly how it's divided.
What do I get back?
One or more PDF files, depending on how you split. Each output is a standalone PDF containing the pages you selected.
Is my PDF uploaded to split it?
No. The split happens in your browser, so the document and its contents stay on your device.
Does splitting reduce text or image quality?
No. Pages are extracted without re-rendering, so text remains selectable and images keep full resolution.
Can I split an encrypted PDF?
Remove the password first with Decrypt PDF, then split the unlocked file.
