How to use the Split PDF converter
- 1
Drop a PDF onto the upload area, or click it to choose one.
- 2
Once it's read, choose "Custom ranges" and enter pages like "1-3,5,8-10", or choose "Split every page" to get one file per page.
- 3
Click "Split PDF."
- 4
Download each resulting file individually, or as a ZIP if there's more than one.
Common uses
- Pulling a specific chapter or section out of a longer PDF
- Breaking a scanned batch of documents into individual files
- Removing a few pages by extracting everything except them
- Separating a multi-page form into one file per page
Supported formats and limitations
Accepts PDF, up to one file at a time.
- One PDF at a time, up to 40 MB.
- Page ranges are validated against the document's real page count — an out-of-range or malformed range is rejected with a specific message rather than silently ignored.
- Password-protected PDFs can't be read and are rejected rather than producing a broken result.
Frequently asked questions
No. Splitting happens entirely in your browser using pdf-lib — nothing is sent to a server.
Comma-separated pages and ranges, e.g. "1-3,5,8-10" — that produces three files: pages 1-3, page 5, and pages 8-10.
You'll see a specific error — e.g. a page number beyond the document's length, or a backwards range — before you can split.
Yes — switch to the "Split every page" option instead of entering a custom range.
Each output file has its own download button, plus a "Download all as ZIP" button when there's more than one.
