How to Split a PDF

Splitting a PDF lets you extract specific pages or divide a large document into smaller, more manageable files. Our free online PDF splitter supports three modes: split into individual pages, extract a page range, or split every N pages.

When to Split PDFs

Common use cases include extracting a single chapter from an ebook, splitting a multi-invoice document into individual invoices, creating separate files from a scanned batch of documents, or breaking down large files for email attachment limits.

How It Works

Our splitter loads your PDF directly in your browser using the pdf-lib library. No data is sent to any server. You select your split mode, configure your options, and download the resulting files — all within seconds.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I split a PDF into individual pages?
Yes! Select 'Split into single pages' mode and each page of your PDF will become a separate file. You can then download all pages at once.
How do I extract a specific range of pages?
Choose 'Extract page range' mode, enter your start and end page numbers, and click Split. Only those pages will be saved as a new PDF.
What does 'Split every N pages' mean?
This mode divides your PDF into chunks. For example, splitting every 2 pages from a 10-page PDF creates 5 separate 2-page PDFs.
Is there a limit on how many pages I can split?
No, there is no limit. You can split PDFs of any length, though very large documents may take longer to process.
Does splitting affect the quality of my PDF?
No. Splitting preserves the original quality. Each page is copied exactly as-is from the original document.
