Split PDF

How to split a PDF

Splitting a PDF means taking one document and turning it into several. The most common reason is a scan that contains many pages in one file, when you only need one of them — a single invoice from a monthly statement, one chapter from a report, or the signed page from a contract. This tool splits your PDF into individual pages, one PDF per page, and gives them to you as a ZIP file. You can also extract a page range (for example pages 3 to 7) as a single new PDF.

Drop a PDF and choose how to split it. "Every page" gives you one PDF per page, named by page number, inside a ZIP. "Page range" asks for a start and end page and gives you one PDF containing just those pages. The pages keep their original content, size, and order — splitting only divides the document, it never changes a page.

Everything runs in your browser, so the document never leaves your device. That matters when the PDF is a bank statement, a medical record, or a contract. There is no page limit beyond a sensible cap, and no daily limit, so you can split a 200-page scan in one go. If you only need a few pages, the range option is faster than downloading a ZIP of every page and deleting the ones you do not want.

A practical tip: if you split a PDF and then need the pages in a different order, use the Merge PDF tool afterwards — split, then merge in the order you want. The two tools are designed to work together, and because both run locally, the whole round trip takes seconds.
