How to Split a PDF into Separate Pages

1
Upload Your PDF: Click the upload zone or drag and drop your PDF file into the tool. The splitter accepts any standard PDF document up to 50MB. Once uploaded, you will see the total page count and file details displayed at the top.
2
Choose Your Split Mode: Select "Split by Ranges" to define custom page ranges (for example, pages 1-5 and 6-10), or choose "Extract Pages" to visually select individual pages you want to pull out. Both modes let you create multiple output files in one operation.
3
Download Your Split Files: Click the split or extract button and wait a few seconds for processing. Each resulting PDF file will appear with its own download link. You can download them individually or grab them all at once.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between splitting and extracting pages?

Splitting divides a PDF into multiple separate files based on page ranges you define (for example, turning a 20-page document into four 5-page files). Extracting pulls out specific pages you select and combines them into a single new PDF, leaving the original untouched.

Is there a limit to how many pages I can split or extract?

There is no strict page limit. You can split or extract pages from PDFs of any length, as long as the total file size stays under 50MB. This accommodates most documents, including lengthy reports, ebooks, and multi-chapter papers.

Will splitting a PDF change the quality or formatting?

No. The split and extract operations do not re-encode or compress your files. Each output PDF preserves the original text, images, fonts, hyperlinks, and page layout exactly as they appeared in the source document.

Can I split a scanned PDF or a password-protected file?

Scanned PDFs work perfectly since our tool processes the file structure regardless of whether text is selectable. However, password-protected PDFs must be unlocked before uploading, as we cannot bypass document security restrictions.
