Split PDF
Split any PDF into the exact files you need โ entirely in your browser, no uploads.
Drag & drop a PDF here, or click to choose. Your file never leaves your browser โ nothing is uploaded, the split happens on your device.
Loaded โ this PDF has 0 page(s). Pick how to split it below.
How do you want to split it?
Split PDF lets you break one PDF into smaller files three ways: extract a custom page range like 1-3,5,8-10 into a single new PDF, split every N pages into equal chunks, or save each page as its own PDF. Everything runs locally in your browser using your own device, so your document is never uploaded to a server โ there is no signup, no watermark, and no file-size paywall. Pick a mode, click Split, and download your results instantly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my PDF uploaded to a server when I split it?
No. Split PDF runs entirely in your browser using the pdf-lib library. Your file is read from your device and processed locally, so it never leaves your computer and nothing is sent to us. This makes it safe for confidential, legal, or financial documents.
How do I extract specific pages from a PDF?
Choose 'Extract a range' and type the pages you want, for example 1-3,5,8-10. The tool validates them against your PDF's page count and produces one new PDF containing exactly those pages, in the order you listed them.
Can I split a large PDF into equal parts?
Yes. Choose 'Split every N pages' and enter a number, e.g. 10. The tool creates one PDF for every group of up to N consecutive pages, so a 95-page file split every 10 becomes ten downloadable PDFs.
Can I save every page as a separate PDF?
Yes. Choose 'One PDF per page' and the tool produces a separate single-page PDF for each page in your document, each with its own download button.
Why do I download files one at a time instead of a ZIP?
To keep the tool lightweight and fast (and to avoid loading extra libraries), each resulting PDF gets its own clearly labelled download button, like 'Download pages 1โ5'. There's no signup and no limit on how many you create.
Is there a page limit or watermark?
No. There are no page limits, no watermarks, and no signup. Because the work happens on your device, the only practical limit is your browser's available memory for very large files.
What's the difference between this and iLovePDF or Smallpdf Split?
Those tools upload your file to their servers and free plans add daily limits. This tool keeps your PDF private in your browser and combines custom ranges, fixed-size chunks, and one-PDF-per-page in a single screen โ no account needed.
