Split by page ranges, or burst into single pages.
On your device. No watermark. No sign-up.
This tool is processed locally with JavaScript inside your browser tab. The document is not uploaded, stored or seen by a server, which makes it suitable for contracts, invoices, CVs and medical or financial records.
By ranges lets you type the pages you want, for example 1-3, 5-8, 12. Each range becomes its own PDF, so that example gives three files. A single number such as 12 gives a one-page file.
Single pages makes one PDF per page, so a 20-page PDF becomes 20 files.
Every N pages cuts the document into chunks of N pages. With N set to 10, a 35-page PDF becomes parts of 10, 10, 10 and 5 pages.
Page numbers count from the first page of the PDF, not from the number printed on the page. Separate ranges with commas or semicolons.
A range written backwards, such as 4-2, is read as 2-4. A range that runs past the last page is cut at the last page, so 3-9 on a 4-page file gives pages 3 to 4. A range completely outside the document is skipped.
Ranges can overlap, and each one makes its own file. Leave the box empty or type all to keep the whole document as one file. The words odd and even are not accepted here.
Pack multiple results into one ZIP is ticked by default. When the split makes more than one file, they are packed into a ZIP named after your PDF, and it downloads on its own when the split finishes. Untick the box to get a list with a Download button for each file.
Files are named after the original with the pages they hold, for example report-p1-3.pdf for pages 1 to 3 and report-p12.pdf for page 12.
Use Split PDF when you want several files. Use Extract Pages to pull chosen pages into one file, and Delete Pages to remove pages and keep the rest in the same file.
For documents that break at a known place, two other tools do the cutting for you. Split by Text starts a new file at each page that contains a phrase you choose, which suits a batch of invoices in one PDF. Split by Bookmarks makes one file per bookmark, for example one per chapter.
Each part holds only the pages you chose, plus the images and fonts those pages use. A part with half the pages of a scanned PDF is about half the size of the file. In our test, a one-page part of a four-page image PDF came out at a quarter of the whole file.
Pages that share an image, such as a logo on every page, each carry a copy of what they use, so the parts can add up to a little more than the original. If a part is still too big to email or upload, run it through Compress PDF, or use Split by Size to cut at a limit in KB.
A PDF that needs a password to open cannot be split. Unlock it first with Remove Password, using the password you already have. A PDF that opens normally but blocks printing or copying is not accepted either, so run it through Unlock PDF first.
If the tool says the file does not look like a valid PDF, the file is locked or damaged. Repair PDF can often rebuild a damaged one.
The PDF is split inside this browser tab with the pdf-lib library. It is read from your disk and never sent to a server, so it is safe for contracts, statements and ID documents. After your first visit the tool also works offline.
Yes. There is no account, no daily limit and no watermark on the files.
No. The PDF is split inside your browser and never leaves your device.
Choose Single pages and press Split PDF. You get one PDF per page, packed into a ZIP.
Choose By ranges and type the pages, for example 1-3, 5-8. Each range becomes its own PDF.
Choose By ranges and type the page number twice as a range, for example 5-5, or type just 5. You get a PDF with only that page.
Split PDF does not read the words odd and even. Use Extract Pages and list the pages, for example 1, 3, 5, 7, to get one file with those pages.
When a split makes more than one file, the files are packed into one ZIP so you do not have to save them one by one. Untick the ZIP box to get separate downloads.
A part is only as small as the pages in it. If one page is most of the file, or every page uses the same large image, the parts stay big. Compress them with Compress PDF, or use Split by Size to cut at a limit in KB.
Remove the password first with Remove Password, then split the unlocked copy.
No limit is set by a server. The practical limit is your device memory, about 100–200 MB for the PDF on most desktops, and less on a phone.
Yes, in Chrome, Safari and other mobile browsers. Large files are easier on a desktop.
