How to split a PDF

  1. Choose your PDF. Click Choose a PDF file or drag it onto the box. You'll see how many pages it has.
  2. Pick how to split it. Type the pages you want (for example 1-3, 5), split it every few pages, or make one file per page.
  3. Download. Press the split button. One file downloads as a PDF; several files come together in a ZIP.

Ways to split

✂️ Extract pages

Pull out just the pages you need into a new PDF, such as one chapter, a signed page or a single invoice from a long statement.

📑 Split by ranges

Type several ranges and tick Save each range as a separate file to turn one document into several in one go.

🔢 Every N pages

Break a long scan into equal parts, for example a 30-page batch into ten 3-page documents.

📄 One file per page

Turn every page into its own PDF, handy for scanned receipts or forms.

Frequently asked questions

Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?

No. PDF-M splits the file inside your browser. It is never sent to a server, so confidential documents stay on your device.

How do I write page ranges?

Separate pages and ranges with commas: 1-3, 5, 8-10. Leave the end of a range open to go to the last page, so 7- means page 7 to the end.

Will the quality change?

No. Pages are copied exactly as they are, so text stays selectable and images keep their original resolution.

How do I open the ZIP file?

On Windows and Mac, double-click it. On iPhone and iPad, tap it in the Files app. On Android, open it from the Files app or your Downloads folder.

Can I split a password-protected PDF?

Not directly. Open it with its password, save or print a copy without protection, then split that copy.

Can I put the pages back together later?

Yes. Use the PDF merger to combine any of the files again, in any order.
