About PDF Split

Split PDF extracts the pages you need from a larger document and creates smaller PDF files. It can produce one PDF from a selected range, save every chosen page separately, divide a document after a fixed number of pages, or build custom groups such as 1-3, 4-7 and 8-10. This is useful for separating chapters, invoices, certificates, forms and scanned batches.

Choose the splitting method that matches the final workflow. A single extraction is best when you need one shorter document. Individual-page mode is useful for separate records, while fixed chunks can divide repetitive document packs. Custom groups provide the most control. The tool reports the page count and packages multiple outputs in a ZIP. Verify page numbering carefully because PDF page numbers can differ from printed page labels inside the document.

Frequently asked questions

Can I enter more than one page range?

Yes. Custom group mode can create several outputs from ranges you define.

Will the original PDF be changed?

No. The downloaded files are new PDFs and the source file on your device remains unchanged.

What happens if I enter a page that does not exist?

The tool validates page selections and should show an error or ignore invalid ranges rather than creating a misleading output.

Can I split an encrypted PDF?

Encrypted or restricted PDFs may need to be unlocked before browser-based splitting can work.
