Single PDF file
Automatically splits the PDF using its built-in chapter or section markers.
Extract specific pages or a range into a separate PDF, or split every page into individual files and download them as a ZIP. Processing happens entirely in your browser using pdf-lib — no upload required.
Pages are extracted without re-rendering — text, fonts, images, and vector graphics are preserved exactly as in the original.
Can I split a password-protected PDF?
Unlock it first using the Remove Password tool, then split.
What happens to my file after splitting?
Your file is processed entirely in your browser and cleared from memory when you close or refresh the tab. Nothing is stored on any server.
Can I split a 100-page PDF into individual pages?
Yes. Select Split All Pages and you'll receive a ZIP with one PDF per page.
Will the split PDF look different from the original?
No. Pages are extracted without re-rendering — everything is preserved exactly.
1-5 or individual pages like 2,4,6. Use Split Every Page to get every page as a separate file in a ZIP. Use By Bookmarks to split along the PDF's built-in chapter or section markers.Your PDF is never uploaded anywhere. The entire splitting process — page extraction, ZIP creation, and bookmark parsing — runs inside your browser using pdf-lib and PDF.js. No file content reaches a server, which matters when the document contains payslips, KYC bundles, bank statements, or any other sensitive records.
No registration is required and there are no usage limits. The tool has no per-split fee, no subscription tier that unlocks "more pages," and no watermark on the extracted files. Every user gets the same fully capable tool without any account.
Split PDF works on mobile devices without any app installation. If you receive a large PDF on your phone — a payslip bundle, a multi-chapter report, or a scanned document package — you can open this page in your mobile browser and extract exactly the pages you need.
Yes. In the Extract Pages tab, enter a single page number such as 3 to extract only that page as a new PDF. You can also enter a comma-separated list — 1,3,7 extracts pages 1, 3, and 7 into a single output PDF. This is useful for pulling one payslip from a combined annual payslip PDF, or extracting the first page of a bank statement to use as address proof for a KYC submission.
Split Every Page extracts each page of your PDF into its own separate file and bundles them all into a ZIP archive named after the original. For a 20-page PDF you receive 20 files named page-1.pdf through page-20.pdf. This is useful for submitting pages individually, or for removing specific pages — unzip the archive, delete the unwanted files, then re-merge the rest using the Merge PDF tool.
Some PDFs have a built-in table of contents called an outline or bookmark tree. The By Bookmarks mode reads these entries, resolves which pages each section spans, and presents a checklist of sections with their page ranges. Checking sections and clicking Split produces one PDF per section — either a single download or a ZIP if you select multiple sections. If the PDF has no bookmarks the tool will say so; use the Extract Pages mode with manual page numbers instead.
No. Pages are extracted using pdf-lib's structure-level copy operation — no re-rendering takes place. The content of each extracted page is identical to the original: text remains selectable and searchable, images retain their original resolution, and vector graphics stay sharp at any zoom level. The only difference is that the output file is a smaller document containing a subset of the original pages.
