About Split PDF
Each range you enter becomes its own PDF. A range like 8- means page 8 through the last page, so you never have to count.
To cut a long document into chapters, list several ranges separated by commas. If you want the selected pages together in one file instead, use Extract PDF pages.
Frequently asked questions
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The tool runs inside your browser, so your files are read and processed on your own device and never sent anywhere.
How do I split a PDF into separate pages?
Choose Every page. Each page becomes its own PDF, and all of them download together as one ZIP file.
How do I split a PDF by page range?

How do I get selected pages in one PDF instead of several?

Does splitting change the quality of the pages?
