How it works
Upload a PDF, then split every page into its own file or extract custom page ranges such as 1-3, 5, 8-10. Each range becomes a separate downloadable PDF. Splitting runs entirely in your browser—files are not uploaded to a server.
Limitations
Page ranges are 1-based. Password-protected PDFs must be decrypted first. Very large files may be slow on low-memory devices.
Privacy and file handling
Your data is processed in your browser and is not uploaded to our server.
