1. Custom Page Range
Want specific pages? Enter them directly: "1,3,5-8" extracts pages 1, 3, and 5 through 8 into separate files. Use commas to separate individual pages and hyphens for ranges. You get exactly the pages you need — nothing more, nothing less.
2. Every N Pages
Need to split a large PDF into chunks? Set "Every 5 pages" and your 50-page document becomes 10 separate PDFs of 5 pages each. Perfect for breaking down long reports, manuscripts, or slide decks into manageable pieces.
3. Equal Parts
Divide your PDF into N equal parts. Input "3" and your document splits into three roughly equal segments. Ideal for distributing sections of a document to different people or uploading to systems with file size limits.
Features That Save You Time
Visual Page Picker
See thumbnail previews of every page in your PDF before splitting. Click to select or deselect individual pages. Use "Select All" or "None" to quickly toggle. The visual grid makes it obvious which pages go where.
Smart ZIP Packaging
When splitting into multiple files, the tool automatically packages them into a ZIP file. You download one file instead of dozens. Each PDF inside the ZIP is named with your custom prefix — like "Report_1-5.pdf" instead of generic names.
Rename Before Downloading
Just like our PDF merger, you can rename the output files before downloading. Click "Rename" next to the download button, type your preferred name, and all split files get that prefix. No more "split_1.pdf" — get "Chapter_1.pdf" instead.
100% Private — No Upload
Every split operation happens entirely in your browser. Your PDF never leaves your device. Disconnect your internet after the page loads — the splitter still works. This is ideal for sensitive documents like contracts, medical records, or financial statements.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I split password-protected PDFs?
The tool can handle some encrypted PDFs. If your PDF requires a password to open, you may need to remove the protection first.
Does splitting reduce quality?
No — the split pages are extracted directly from the original PDF. There's no re-encoding or quality loss.
Can I split on mobile?
Yes — all three split modes work on phones and tablets. The thumbnail grid adapts to smaller screens.
What's the maximum PDF size?
There's no hard limit, but larger files require more device memory. Most phones handle 50MB+ PDFs easily.
