Split PDF

Extract the pages you need (for example 1-3, 7), split every page into its own file, or cut a PDF into equal chunks. Multi-file results download as a ZIP.

Frequently asked questions

How do I extract just a few pages?

Choose "Extract pages" and type the pages you want, for example 1-3, 7, 10-12. You get a single PDF containing those pages in the order you listed them, and duplicates are ignored.

Why do I get a ZIP file?

When a split produces more than one PDF, browsers block downloading many files at once. Packing them into a single ZIP is the reliable way — open it with the built-in unzip tool on Windows, Mac, Android, or iOS.

What does "Split every N pages" do?

It cuts the document into equal chunks. With N set to 10, a 95-page PDF becomes ten files: nine of 10 pages and one final file with the remaining 5.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. The split happens entirely inside your browser using pdf-lib. No server receives, stores, or sees your document.

Does the output have a watermark?

No. Each output PDF contains exactly the pages you selected, with nothing added.

It says my PDF cannot be read — why?

The file is almost certainly password-protected. Open it in a PDF reader, enter the password, save an unprotected copy, and split that copy instead.
