A 200-page company report, a combined form submission, a multi-chapter document — sometimes you only need part of a PDF. Our free PDF splitter lets you extract exactly the pages you need without downloading additional software.
The most precise method. Specify exactly which pages go into each output file using a simple range syntax. For example, entering "1-10, 11-25, 26-50" creates three separate PDFs from a 50-page document. Each range becomes its own file.
Creates one PDF per page. Ideal for scanned document collections where each page is an individual form, certificate or receipt that needs to be filed separately. A 20-page PDF produces 20 single-page PDFs.
Divides the document into equal chunks. Setting "5 pages per file" on a 30-page document creates six 5-page PDFs. Useful for distributing evenly-sized sections to different teams or printing in booklet format.
In the page range field, use numbers for single pages and hyphens for ranges, separated by commas. Examples: "1" extracts just page one. "1-5" extracts pages one through five. "1-5, 8, 11-15" creates three files. Pages must be within the document range — specifying page 50 of a 30-page document is ignored.
Splitting is often used in combination with other PDF operations. A common workflow is: split a large scanned document into individual pages, OCR the pages, then merge only the relevant ones. Another workflow: split a report to extract the financial section, then password-protect just that section before sharing.
