How to do it
- 1
Add your file
Add the PDF you want to break apart. Page thumbnails appear so you can see what you are working with before choosing anything — no guessing from page numbers alone.
- 2
Set it up the way you want
Say which pages you want. Click thumbnails to pick them, shift-click for a run, or type ranges like 1-3, 7, 12- in the box. The two stay in sync, so you can start by clicking and finish by typing.

Download the result
One range gives you one PDF. Several ranges give you several files, bundled into a ZIP so a single click downloads them all. Your original file is never modified — splitting only ever creates new documents.
Questions about Split PDF
- Can I get each page as its own file?
- Yes. Type a range that covers every page separately, or use Split every N pages with N set to 1. Each page becomes its own PDF and the set arrives as a ZIP.
- What does a range like "12-" mean?
- Everything from page 12 to the end. Ranges also work the other way: "-5" means the first five pages. You can mix these with commas, so "1-3, 7, 12-" is three separate selections in one line.
- Does splitting lose quality?
- No. Pages are copied across as they are, not re-rendered, so images, fonts and vector artwork are byte-for-byte what they were. The output of a split is visually identical to the pages you started with.
