How to split pdf

  1. Drop your PDF in, or tap to choose it. The page count appears straight away.
  2. Pick Page range to keep only certain pages, or Every page separately to get one PDF per page.
  3. For a range, type the pages you want - for example 1-3, 5, 8-10.
  4. Press Split PDF and your file or files download immediately.

The whole job runs inside your browser with JavaScript, so your PDF is never uploaded to a server. Nothing is stored, there is no watermark and no sign-up.

Split a PDF into separate files

Sometimes you only need three pages out of a forty-page document, or a scanner has put everything into one big file when each page should stand alone. This splitter does both: pull out a page range, or break the document into one PDF per page. Pages are copied across untouched, so text stays selectable and image quality is unchanged.

Choosing pages

The range box accepts single pages and spans, separated by commas — 1-3, 5, 8-10 keeps pages 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 9 and 10 in one new PDF, in that order. Page numbers start at 1 and anything outside the document is ignored, so a typo cannot break the result.

Nothing is uploaded

Contracts, medical reports and bank statements are exactly the sort of PDF people split, and exactly the sort you should not hand to a random server. This tool runs entirely in your browser, so the document never leaves your device. Need the opposite? Our Merge PDF tool joins files back together.

Frequently asked questions

Is this PDF splitter free?

Yes - completely free, with no watermark, no file limit from us and no sign-up.

Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?

No. The file is opened and split on your own device, so nothing is sent to a server.

How do I write a page range?

Use commas and hyphens - for example 1-3, 5, 8-10. Single pages and spans can be mixed.

Can I save every page as its own PDF?

Yes. Choose 'Every page separately' and each page is downloaded as a separate file, numbered in order.

Does splitting reduce quality?

No. Pages are copied exactly as they are, so text stays sharp and images are not re-compressed.

Does it work on Android and iPhone?

Yes, in any modern mobile browser - no app needed.

Can it split password-protected PDFs?

No. Unlock the PDF in a reader first, then split the unlocked copy.

How do I join PDFs back together?

Use our Merge PDF tool to combine several files into one document.
