Split PDF — free, and nothing is uploaded

Split a PDF by page range, every N pages, or one file per page.

  • The page count is read the moment you drop the file, so you can see what you are cutting.
  • Take a single chapter out of a long report without opening a desktop editor.
  • Multiple outputs come back as one zip, because browsers block simultaneous downloads.

Three steps, nothing to install

Split PDF in three steps

  1. PDFDrag it in, or click to browse

    Open the PDF you want to divide

    Drop the file in and its page count appears immediately, so you can see what you are working with before choosing where to cut.

  2. Choose exactly what changes

    Say where to cut it

    Give a range like 4-9, split every N pages for a fixed-size batch, or burst the whole document into one file per page.

  3. Download PDF

    Download the pieces

    A single result downloads on its own; several come back as one zip so nothing is lost to a blocked pop-up.

Why use Split PDF

  • Three ways to cut

    Ranges for a known chapter, fixed intervals for a regular structure, and one-per-page when you need every sheet separately.

  • The file never leaves the tab

    There is no upload because there is nowhere to upload to. The site is static files, and the work runs as code on your own machine.

  • No queue to wait in

    The result appears as fast as your own processor can produce it, rather than after a round trip and a spot in someone else’s job queue.

Frequently asked questions

Use commas for separate output files and hyphens for spans: "1-3, 4-8, 9-" gives three PDFs. An open end like "9-" runs to the last page.

Three ways to split

By page range is the one you want when the document has a structure: a report whose chapters start at known pages, or a batch scan holding several separate documents. Each comma-separated group becomes its own PDF.

Every N pages suits uniform documents — a stack of double-sided forms scanned in one pass, split back into two-page records.

One file per page is the blunt option, useful when you need to distribute or re-order pages individually.

Splitting is lossless, and non-destructive

The outputs are built by copying page objects, so nothing is re-rendered and no quality is lost. Your original file is never modified — everything happens on a copy held in your browser's memory, and nothing is uploaded.

To combine documents instead, use Merge PDF. To reorder or rotate pages within one document, use Organize PDF. To turn pages into images, see PDF to JPG.

  • Merge PDF

    Combine several PDFs into one, in the order you choose.

  • Organize PDF

    Rotate, reorder and delete PDF pages using visual thumbnails.

  • PDF to JPG

    Render every page of a PDF as a JPG image.

  • Compress PDF

    Reduce PDF file size, with honest before and after numbers.

  • PDF to Word

    Extract the text of a PDF into an editable Word (DOCX) document.

  • Word to PDF

    Turn a Word DOCX file into a shareable PDF.
