How to split PDF
- Select the PDF file you want to split.
- Enter split ranges. Comma-separated groups become separate files (e.g.
1-3, 4-6). - Press Split PDF and each group downloads as its own PDF.
π‘ Splitting a large PDF into just what you need
When several documents are bundled into one file, or you only need to send certain pages, splitting lets you pull out exactly the part you need.
- βοΈ Split by ranges: Comma-separate ranges like
1-3, 4-6to get one file per group β handy for splitting by chapter or department. - π Extract single pages: Enter pages like
2, 5, 9and get a single PDF containing only those pages. - π Browser-only processing: Files are never sent to a server β splitting happens only in your browser.
π Where is splitting a PDF useful?
- Extracting just the pages you need β pull only the signature page from a contract, or one chapter from a paper.
- Breaking up large files β split into multiple files when you hit an upload size limit.
- Separating a batch scan β split a PDF that contains several scanned documents back into individual files.
- Distributing by recipient β send each department or recipient only the pages they need.
β¨ How to set page ranges correctly
- Each comma-separated group is saved as its own file β
1-3, 4-6produces 2 files. - Page numbers follow the PDF's actual order, starting at 1.
- To extract just one range, enter a single one (e.g.
5-10).
π Does splitting keep the original quality?
Yes. Splitting copies the original pages as-is rather than redrawing them, so there's no loss of text or image quality. Unlike compression, fonts and layer data from the original PDF are fully preserved.
