About the Split PDF tool

Split PDF files in seconds without installing anything or signing up. Drop in a PDF and choose how to divide it — extract specific pages, pull out a page range, or separate the PDF into multiple files — then download the result. Everything happens entirely in your browser, so your document is never uploaded to a server and stays completely private.

This free PDF splitter is built for the common cases: grabbing a single chapter, removing a cover page, or breaking a large report into smaller pieces. You can split a PDF into multiple files by page range or split every N pages with a couple of clicks. No watermarks, no email, no page limits — just a fast, private way to separate the pages you need.

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the questions we hear most about this tool.

How do I split a PDF?

Open the tool and drop in your PDF, then choose how to split it — click the pages you want to extract, type a page range, or pick an option to break it into multiple files. Click split and download the resulting PDF (or a ZIP of several). It all runs in your browser, with no software to install.

Is this PDF splitter free, and are my files uploaded?

Yes, it's completely free with no sign-up, watermarks or page limits. Your files are never uploaded — the entire split happens locally in your browser on your own device, so your PDF stays private and never leaves your computer.

Can I extract specific pages or page ranges?

Yes. You can pull out individual pages (like 1, 4, 9) or page ranges (like 3-7) and save just those pages as a new PDF. That makes it easy to extract a single chapter, section or any pages you need from a larger document.

Can I preview the pages before splitting?

Yes. Every page is shown as a small thumbnail so you can see exactly what you are splitting — click the pages you want to extract, or watch how your ranges will be cut. The previews are rendered from your file right in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.

Can I split a PDF into separate files or every N pages?

Yes. You can split one PDF into multiple separate files — by custom ranges, every N pages (every 2, 5, 10 pages and so on), or one file per page. When the result is more than one file, they download together as a ZIP.

Does it work offline and on mobile?

Yes. Because the splitting runs entirely in your browser, it works on phones, tablets and computers, and keeps working offline once the page has loaded. No connection is needed to process your PDF.
