User guide

How to use Split PDF

Extract selected ranges or export every page as a separate PDF in your browser.

  1. 1

    Choose one multi-page PDF.

  2. 2

    Select range mode or extract-every-page mode.

  3. 3

    For ranges, enter values such as 1-3, 5, 8-10 and review validation messages.

  4. 4

    Start splitting, download the PDF or ZIP, and reopen the extracted files.

Best for

  • Separating a contract appendix from the main agreement
  • Extracting required pages for a visa or government upload
  • Turning a scanned packet into one PDF per page

Important limitation

Page numbers start at 1; overlapping ranges can intentionally duplicate pages. Encrypted or damaged files must be resolved before extraction.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the result a ZIP?

Multiple output PDFs are bundled into one local ZIP download.

Can I enter several ranges?

Yes. Separate ranges and single pages with commas, such as 1-3, 5, 8-10.

What if I enter a page that does not exist?

The range validator reports the problem before processing so an incomplete result is not downloaded.

Is the source PDF sent to a server?

No. Page extraction and ZIP creation run locally in browser memory.
