About Split PDF

Use Split PDF when you need selected pages from a larger document rather than the complete file.

What is Split PDF?

Split PDF extracts the pages you need from a larger PDF and creates a separate document. It is a practical way to send one chapter, appendix, or completed section without sharing the entire source.

When this tool helps

  • Send only the pages relevant to a specific person or project.
  • Separate a chapter, appendix, or completed form from a packet.
  • Create a smaller working copy while keeping the source document intact.

What happens to your file?

Page selection and extraction run in your browser. The selected pages are used to create a new download in the current tab.

Features in this tool

  • Accept individual page numbers and ranges such as 1-3, 5, 8-10.
  • Combine non-consecutive pages in one output PDF.
  • Leave the original file unchanged in the browser.

Common problems and solutions

  • The wrong pages were exported: Page numbers start at 1. Recheck the range and open the downloaded PDF before sharing it.
  • I need several separate files: This workflow creates one PDF per run. Repeat it with another range for each additional copy.
  • A page range is ignored: Use commas between entries and a hyphen for ranges, without entering page numbers beyond the document.

How to use Split PDF

  1. Upload one PDF.
  2. Enter page numbers using commas and ranges, such as 1-3, 5, 8-10.
  3. Choose Extract & download, then check that the exported pages are complete.

Tips and limitations

  • Page numbers start at 1, and overlapping entries are combined automatically.
  • The original file is not changed.
  • An encrypted, damaged, or unusually complex PDF may not load successfully.

Frequently asked about Split PDF

Can I extract non-consecutive pages?

Yes. Combine individual pages and ranges with commas.

Can I split a PDF into many separate downloads at once?

This tool creates one PDF from the pages you select. Run it again with another range for a different copy.

Does splitting delete pages from the original?

No. It creates a new extracted PDF and leaves the original untouched.
