Split PDF

Choose your PDF, or drop it here The file stays on your device

Three ways to split

  • Keep these pages — the new file contains only what you list, in the order you list it.
  • Delete these pages — everything except the pages you list, useful for stripping blank scans or a cover sheet.
  • One file per page — every page becomes its own numbered PDF.

Writing a page selection

  • 1-3 — pages 1, 2 and 3.
  • 1-3, 7, 10 — a mix of ranges and single pages.
  • 12- — page 12 to the end. -5 — the start to page 5.
  • 5,1,3 — those three pages in that order.
  • 9-5 — pages 9 down to 5, reversed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I write the page selection?

Use numbers and ranges separated by commas: 1-3, 7, 12-. An open range like 12- means page 12 to the end, and -5 means the start to page 5. The selection is checked as you type.

Can I put the pages in a different order?

Yes. The output follows the order you write, so 5,1,3 gives you those three pages in that order. A backwards range such as 9-5 reverses those pages.

What is the difference between extracting and deleting?

Extract keeps only the pages you list. Delete keeps everything except them. Both produce one new file and leave the original untouched on your device.

Can I split into one file per page?

Yes — choose "one file per page" and each page is downloaded as its own PDF, numbered in order. Your browser may ask permission to download several files at once.

Is my document uploaded?

No. The file is read and rewritten by your own browser, so nothing is transmitted or stored anywhere.

The file is password protected and will not open.

Open it in a PDF reader with the password and save an unlocked copy, then split that. An encrypted document cannot be read without its password.

Everything on this page runs inside your own browser. Nothing you type or upload is sent to a server, so your data never leaves your device.
