How to split a PDF

Step 1

Drop a PDF into the box above.

Step 2

Enter the pages you want — like 2-5, 8 — or choose to split every page into its own file.

Step 3

Click Split PDF. The pages are copied out by code running in your browser tab.

Step 4

Download the result. Your original file is untouched and nothing was uploaded.

Your file never leaves your browser

Everything this tool does happens in your browser tab. The PDF is opened, processed, and rebuilt by code running on your own device — it is never uploaded, so there is no server copy, no retention policy to read, and nothing to breach. Close the tab and it is gone.

Frequently asked questions

Is this PDF splitter really free?

Yes. No account, no watermark stamped on the output, and no cap on how many times you use it. Splitting happens as code in your browser tab, which costs us nothing per file — our paid bank-statement converter is what funds the site.

Do my PDF files get uploaded to a server?

No — nothing is uploaded. The PDF is opened and its pages copied into new files entirely inside your browser. The only things this page fetches are its own code and an anonymous usage count; your document is part of neither, and never leaves the tab.

How do I extract specific pages like 2-5 and 8?

Type the range into the page box exactly like that: 2-5, 8. Commas separate the pieces, a hyphen makes a range, and a bare number pulls a single page. You get back one new PDF containing exactly those pages.

Can I split every page into its own PDF?

Yes. Choose the split-every-page option and each page becomes its own numbered PDF, delivered together in a ZIP so you are not clicking through a hundred separate downloads. Page content and quality are untouched.

Why does my password-protected PDF fail?

Encrypted PDFs cannot be opened without their password, so the tool cannot read the page structure to split it. Strip the protection in your PDF reader, save an unprotected copy, and run that file through instead. You get a plain error message, not a broken download.
