Split PDF
Extract pages or split a PDF into multiple files
🔒 100% free · no signup · files never leave your device
A single PDF often contains more than you need. Banks send a 12-page statement when you only need the summary page, scanners merge a whole stack of unrelated documents into one file, and colleagues attach a 200-page report when the relevant part is chapter three. Forwarding the whole thing wastes the recipient's time and can leak information that was never meant for them.
This PDF splitter lets you extract pages from a PDF online without uploading anything anywhere. Enter simple page-range syntax — "1-3, 7, 10-12" — and the tool builds a new PDF containing exactly those pages, copied losslessly so text remains selectable. It is the quickest way to separate PDF pages for an application, pull a signature page out of a contract, or trim a report down to the part that matters. Password-protected PDFs are not supported, but for standard files everything runs locally in your browser.
Why use Split PDF
Pulling one page out for a form or visa application
Embassy and HR portals often ask for a single specific page — extract just that page instead of sending the whole document.
Separating a batch-scanned stack
When several documents got scanned into one long PDF, page ranges let you split it back into its original documents.
Sharing only the relevant chapter of a report
Extract pages 45–52 and send a 2 MB excerpt rather than a 40 MB file nobody will open.
Removing blank or cover pages before printing
Splitting out only the content pages saves paper and toner on every print run.
Pro tips
- Remember that page numbers refer to the PDF's physical page numbers, not the numbers printed in the footer — scanned books often differ by 2–3 pages.
- Use comma syntax (3, 5, 9-11) to build a custom selection in one pass instead of splitting multiple times.
- If you need one PDF per page, split the ranges 1-1, 2-2… in sequence — or merge selected results back together with the merge tool.
- Check the page count shown after loading the file before typing ranges; a typo like 1-999 on a 12-page document will fail.
