Simple steps to get your converted file

1

Upload your PDF

Drop a single PDF file. The tool analyses the document and shows you a page overview so you know what you're splitting.

Choose your split mode

Pick custom page ranges, split every N pages, or extract each page individually. Type ranges like '1-5, 8, 10-15'.

3

Download the ZIP

Each split section becomes its own PDF. They're packaged into a ZIP for a one-click download.

Define Your Split Rules

Choose custom page ranges, split every N pages, or extract all pages individually — preview the result before downloading.

Every Way to Split a PDF

Whether you need one page or a hundred, a single range or dozens of chunks, the right split mode is here.

Split by Page Range

Extract any range of pages — type '1-3, 5, 8-12' and get a PDF containing exactly those pages in that order.

Split Every N Pages

Divide a long document into equal chunks. Split every 5 pages and get one PDF per chunk automatically.

Extract Single Pages

Pull out individual pages into separate PDF files — useful for extracting a signature page or a specific appendix.

Split by Bookmarks

If your PDF has chapter bookmarks, split it at each bookmark boundary to get one PDF per chapter. Pro feature.

Original Quality Kept

Pages are not re-rendered or recompressed. Fonts, images, and vector graphics stay at their original quality.

Download as ZIP

When splitting into multiple files, all output PDFs are packaged into a single ZIP for a one-click download.
