About This Tool

What is Split PDF?

Our free PDF Splitter gives you full control over how you divide your PDF documents. Whether you need to extract a single page, pull out a chapter, or split every page into its own file, this tool handles it all without sending anything to a server.

Upload your PDF, choose your split mode — by page ranges, by individual pages, or by fixed intervals — and the tool does the rest. It uses pdf-lib to create new PDF documents from the exact pages you specify, preserving all original content, fonts, and images perfectly.

This is invaluable for extracting specific sections from large reports, sending only relevant pages to a client, separating scanned multi-page documents into individual files, or archiving individual chapters of a book. You can download each split section individually or get all of them bundled in a ZIP.

The entire operation happens locally in your browser. There are no server round-trips, no file size restrictions beyond your device's available memory, and no waiting in queues. Large documents split in seconds.
