Split PDF: free online, private and unlimited
Split a PDF into several files or extract only the pages you need
Split PDF gives you three ways to divide a document. Use ranges to pull out the pages you want, such as 1-3, 5, 8-10. Use every N pages to cut a long file into equal parts. Or choose each page to turn every page into its own PDF. You can type the ranges or simply click the page thumbnails.
How to extract pages from a PDF
Upload the PDF, then click the pages you want to keep or type a range. Leave Merge all ranges into one PDF switched off if each range should become its own file, or switch it on to collect all selected pages in a single new PDF. Press Split PDF. One result downloads as a PDF, several results download together as a ZIP.
Typical uses
People split PDFs to send only one chapter of a book, share a single page of a contract, separate a scanned stack into individual documents, pull a boarding pass out of a booking file or break a large report into sections for different teams.
Private by design
The file is processed in your browser and never uploaded. Combine the result with Merge PDF if you later want to put parts back together, or remove unwanted pages directly with Remove pages.
