Questions people ask
How do you split a PDF into separate files?

How do I split a PDF online?
Choose the PDF you want to split, then enter page ranges such as 1-3, 5, 8- or choose to split every N pages. Press Split PDF and download the parts individually or together as a ZIP. It works in your browser without an account, and the original file isn't changed.
How do I write the page ranges?
Separate ranges with commas: 1-3, 5, 8- means pages one to three, page five, and page eight to the end. You can also write end for the last page. Each range becomes its own PDF, unless you tick the option to put all the chosen ranges into a single file.
Can I get every page as its own PDF?
Yes. Choose Every N pages and set N to 1, and you'll get one PDF per page, packed into a ZIP file for one download. This is handy for separating a batch of scanned invoices or certificates that were scanned together into one long document.
Is my document uploaded anywhere?
No. The PDF is read and cut inside your browser on your own device, and we never receive it. That makes it safe for bank statements, salary slips and legal documents. Once the page has loaded, it even works without an internet connection. Your files stay yours.
Will the split files look the same as the original?
Yes. Pages are copied as they are, with their text, images and fonts, so quality doesn't change at all. Text stays selectable and searchable if it was in the original. Only the number of pages in each file is different. Links on pages keep working.
What's the difference between split and extract?
Split cuts a document into several files, one per range or every N pages. Extract keeps only the pages you pick in one new PDF. Use Split when you want many files, and Extract PDF pages when you want a single shorter document. Both keep quality.
Can I split a password-protected PDF?
Not directly. Open it with its password in a PDF viewer, save or print a copy without the password, then split that copy. Many bank and insurance statements are protected this way, typically with a date of birth or part of an account number. Then delete the unlocked copy.
Can I split a PDF into equal parts?
Yes. Choose Every N pages and enter the size of each part. For example, a 60-page PDF split every 20 pages gives three files. The last part simply contains whatever pages are left if the total doesn't divide evenly. Each part downloads with a numbered name.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes, in modern mobile browsers such as Chrome and Safari. Choose the PDF from your files or downloads, enter the ranges and split. For very large PDFs a computer is more reliable, because phones have less memory for processing big documents. Close other apps if it slows down.
How do I download all the parts at once?
Choose the ZIP download after splitting. You'll get one ZIP file containing every part, named in order. Most phones and computers open ZIP files directly. If you only need one part, you can download that file on its own instead. The original stays unchanged. Parts are numbered in page order.
Is there a page or size limit?
There's no fixed limit because nothing is uploaded. The practical limit is your device's memory. Very large PDFs with hundreds of scanned pages may be slow on a phone; use a laptop for those, or split the work into smaller steps. Most everyday documents split in seconds.
Will splitting reduce file size?
Each part is smaller than the original because it has fewer pages, but the pages themselves aren't compressed. If a part is still too large for an upload limit, run it through Compress PDF. Scanned pages usually shrink the most. Check readability after compressing. Text-only PDFs are usually small already.
Can I split a scanned PDF?
Yes. Scanned pages are images inside the PDF, and they split exactly like normal pages. The text on them still isn't searchable afterwards, because the tool doesn't do OCR. The page previews help you check you've chosen the right ranges. Quality stays exactly as scanned.
Can I split a PDF and then merge parts differently?
Yes. Split the document into the parts you need, then use Merge PDF to combine parts from different documents in a new order. Both tools run in your browser, so the files stay on your device the whole time. It's a quick way to rearrange documents.
Is there a watermark on the split files?
No. The split files are exactly your pages, with no watermark, added pages or branding. The tool is free, with no account and no daily limit, so you can split as many documents as you need without registering anywhere. You can use it for business documents too.
