Ranges, single pages and open ends all work.
About this tool
Splitting covers two different jobs. Sometimes you want a slice — pages 4 to 9 of a long report to send to one reviewer. Sometimes you want every page as its own file, which is how scanned batches are usually unpacked before filing. This tool does both from the same page selection syntax, and because it copies pages rather than re-rendering them, the output is byte-for-byte as sharp as the original.
How to use
- Add a PDF file.
- Choose Extract a range to keep specific pages, or One file per page to split everything.
- For a range, type a selection like 1-3,5,8- — open-ended ranges run to the last page.
- Click Split, then download the result. Multiple files arrive as a ZIP.
When to use this tool
- Sending one section of a long report to a reviewer.
- Separating a batch scan into individual documents.
- Pulling a single signed page out of a contract.
- Removing an appendix into its own file.
Tips
- Page selections accept ranges, single pages and open ends: 1-3,5,8- is valid.
- Splitting is lossless — nothing is re-encoded, so quality is identical to the source.
- To delete pages instead of extracting them, use the Delete PDF Pages tool.
FAQ
- Is my PDF uploaded to split it?
- No. Page selection and copying happen in your browser. Nothing is transmitted or stored.
- What does a selection like 8- mean?
- An open-ended range: page 8 through to the last page. Likewise -4 means pages 1 through 4.
- Does splitting reduce quality?
- No. Pages are copied at the object level, not re-rendered, so text stays selectable and images are untouched.
Common jobs this solves
- Your PDF is too big to emailShrink a PDF so it clears Gmail, Outlook and corporate attachment limits. Compresses in your browser — the document is never uploaded.
- Pull specific pages out of a PDFTake a page range out of a PDF into its own file, in your browser. Lossless, and the document is never uploaded.
