How do I write the page selection?

Commas separate items, hyphens make a range: '2, 5-9, 20-' means page 2, pages 5 to 9, and page 20 to the end. Leaving it as 'all' selects everything.

Why is the split result a ZIP?

Splitting a 40-page document produces 40 files. Browsers block or repeatedly prompt on multiple downloads, so they are bundled into one archive instead.

Are the extracted pages identical to the originals?

Yes. Pages are copied whole, including text, fonts and images — nothing is re-rendered.

PDF Splitter

Extract a page range into a new PDF, or split a document into one file per page.

Processing: This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your input and any file you open stay on your device — nothing is uploaded to a server. Limited by your device's memory rather than a server quota. Large scanned documents are the slowest.

How to use the pdf splitter

Open the PDF.
Type the pages to keep, or switch to one file per page.

About this tool

There are two different jobs behind the word 'split'. Usually you want a few specific pages — an invoice out of a statement run, one chapter out of a manual — which this tool does by copying the pages you name into a new document. Occasionally you want every page as its own file, which produces a numbered set delivered as a single ZIP so your browser asks about one download rather than fifty.

Page selections accept the notation people actually write: <code>1-3, 7, 12-</code> means pages one to three, page seven, and everything from twelve to the end. The order is respected, so <code>5,1</code> puts page five first — a quick way to reorder a short document.

Common uses

Sending one invoice from a combined statement.
Pulling a single chapter out of a long report.
Breaking a scanned batch into individual documents.
