How to split a PDF

Step 1

Open your PDF

The page count appears once it loads, which is what you will be writing ranges against.

Step 2

Choose how to cut it

By range for named parts, every N pages for even chunks, or one file per page when every page is its own record.

Step 3

Split and download

Each part arrives as a separate file named for the pages it contains. Your browser may ask permission for multiple downloads, that is expected.

What it handles

Three ways to split a document

01

By page range

Enter "1-3, 7-9" and get two documents. Each comma-separated range becomes its own file.

02

Every N pages

Cut a long report into even chunks without working out the ranges yourself.

03

One file per page

Useful when every page is a separate record. Invoices, certificates, statements.

04

Downloaded together

Multiple outputs arrive as separate downloads, named by the pages they contain.

Split or extract?

These sound interchangeable and are not. Picking wrongly is the usual cause of "I have a folder of fragments I now need to merge back".

Split makes several files

"1-3, 7-9" produces two documents. Use it when each range is a separate deliverable. A chapter, a client copy, an invoice.

Extract makes one

The same input in the extract tool gives a single six-page document. Use it when the ranges belong together.

Open-ended ranges work

"8-" means page eight to the end, so you do not need to know the page count to split off a tail.

Your original is untouched

The file on your disk is read, never written. Nothing you do here can damage the source document.

Questions

What does "1-3, 7-9" produce?

Two files: one with pages 1 to 3, one with pages 7 to 9. Each comma-separated range becomes its own document. Use the extract tool instead if you want those pages combined into a single file.

Can I leave the end of a range open?

Yes. "8-" means page 8 to the end.

What happens to pages I do not list?

They are simply not included in any output. The original file on your device is never modified.
