How to Split a PDF Into Separate Files

Split a PDF by page range, extract specific pages, or divide it into equal parts online, free and private.

When to split a PDF

Splitting is useful when you only need a few pages from a large document, want to send one chapter instead of the whole book, or need to separate a scanned batch into individual files.

How to split in your browser

Open the Split PDF tool and choose your file. Pick a mode: extract a page range, pull out specific pages, or divide the document into equal parts. Download the result as separate PDFs or a ZIP. It runs entirely in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.

Tips

Use page ranges like 1-3, 8, 10-12 to grab exactly what you need. To share just one section, extract that range and send the smaller file. Combine Split with Merge to reorder or rebuild a document any way you like.
