One file in. Many out.

How it works

How to split a PDF into separate files

1. 1

   Upload your PDF

   Drop the PDF you want to split onto the uploader. A page count is shown so you can plan your ranges.

2. 2

   Enter your page ranges

   Type ranges like "1-3, 5, 7-9" to define how the document should be divided. Each range becomes one output file.

3. 3

   Download the zip

   Click Split PDF. The tool creates a separate PDF for each range and packages them into a single zip file for download.

Splitting a PDF is useful whenever you need to share only part of a document - extracting a single chapter from a report, pulling invoices out of a combined statement, or separating a multi-section form. The PDF split tool lets you specify exact page ranges using a simple comma-separated format, giving you precise control without any spreadsheet or script.

The entire operation runs offline in your browser. Your PDF is never uploaded - the split happens locally, which means no waiting on server processing and no privacy risk with confidential documents. Once the ranges are processed, each chunk is packaged into a zip file and downloaded automatically to your device.

Free to use with no file-size limits imposed from the server side. Split a 400-page legal brief into separate exhibits, or break a combined PDF invoice archive into individual monthly files - the tool handles both cases the same way. For large documents, a page-range preview helps you confirm you have the right boundaries before you commit.

FAQ

Common questions

What range format should I use?

Enter page numbers separated by commas. Use a hyphen for consecutive ranges - for example "1-5, 8, 11-15" produces three output files.

Are my files uploaded when I split a PDF?

No. The split runs entirely in your browser using pdf-lib. Your PDF never leaves your device.

What format are the split files delivered in?

Each page range becomes a separate PDF, and all the resulting PDFs are bundled into a single zip file that downloads to your computer.
