What this tool does

This tool breaks a PDF into smaller pieces, either chopping it into chunks of a set number of pages, or pulling out one specific range of pages. It is the natural counterpart to merging, and like merging here, it works entirely in your browser with nothing uploaded.

How to use it

  1. Select your PDF file.
  2. To break it into equal pieces, enter a number under Pages per file and press Split Every N. To pull out a section, enter a From page and To page and press Split Range.
  3. Download the resulting file or files from the links that appear.

How it works

The tool copies the pages you asked for into one or more new PDF documents and hands them back as downloads. Because it copies the original pages rather than redrawing them, the result keeps everything intact: the text stays selectable and searchable, and the quality is identical to the source. It all runs on your device, so your document is never sent to a server.

Two ways to split

The two modes suit different jobs. Split Every N is for breaking a long document into regular pieces, say turning a 50-page file into ten files of five pages each, which is handy when something needs to be uploaded in smaller parts or shared page by page. Split Range is for surgery: when you only want pages 10 to 15 of a long report, it pulls exactly that stretch into a single new PDF and leaves the rest behind.

A small thing worth knowing is that pages are counted from one, so "From page 1 To page 3" gives you the first three pages. If you find yourself splitting a file only to recombine parts of it, the PDF Merger puts pages back together, and to shrink a bulky result the PDF Compressor can help.

Questions people ask

What is the difference between the two split modes?

Split Every N breaks the whole document into equal chunks of the page count you set. Split Range extracts one specific stretch of pages into a single file. Use the first to divide a document up, and the second to grab a section.

Does splitting reduce quality?

No. The tool copies the original pages exactly, so the text stays selectable and the quality is unchanged from the source file.

Is my file uploaded?

No. Everything happens in your browser, so the PDF stays on your device and is never sent anywhere.

Can I extract just a few specific pages?

Yes. Use Split Range and set the From and To pages to the section you want, and the tool returns just those pages as a new PDF.
