DownloadAbout Split PDF
Split PDF breaks one PDF into several. Choose custom ranges (pages 1–4, 5–20…), split every N pages, or pick individual pages to extract. Each range shows its first and last page, and you can expand it to see every page in between before you split.
Your PDF is split right in your browser, so it’s never uploaded. You get one PDF per range, or all ranges merged into a single file, packed in a ZIP when there are several.
