How to split a PDF into separate files
Splitting a PDF locally used to require desktop software; today it can run in a browser. This splitter supports the four patterns that cover nearly every real job:
| Mode | What you get | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| Custom ranges | One file per range (e.g. 1–3, 8–12) | Extract chapters or forms from a packet |
| Every page | One PDF per page, bundled in a ZIP | Scans to file individually, print shops |
| Fixed chunks | Files of N pages each | Fax/printer limits, drip-fed course material |
| Split in half | Two files | Halving a scanned booklet |
Range syntax
Enter comma-separated values, each either a single page (7) or an inclusive range (1-3). Each value becomes one output file; overlapping ranges are allowed. Page numbers are counted from 1, exactly as your PDF reader shows them.
Quality note
Extracted pages are copied, never re-rendered — output files are pixel-identical to the source pages, including fonts and links.
Frequently asked questions
Can I split only certain pages and ignore the rest?
Yes — use Custom ranges and list exactly the pages you want; each range becomes its own output file.
Why do I get a ZIP?
Whenever more than one output file is produced, everything is bundled into a single ZIP so you click once instead of N times.
Can a page appear in more than one output?
Yes, ranges may overlap (e.g. 1-5 and 5-9 both include page 5).
