Split PDF

Extract pages or ranges from a PDF and download them as a new document. Perfect for pulling a chapter out of a book, a signed form from a contract or a single invoice from a batch.

Files are encrypted at rest, kept in your history for 24 hours on Free (30 days on Pro), then deleted automatically.

Split PDF — Frequently asked questions

What format do I use for page ranges?

Comma-separated ranges and single pages: 1-3, 5, 8-10. Spaces are ignored.

Can I split into multiple files at once?

This version extracts one range set. Run it again for another range.

Does splitting reduce quality?

No. Pages are copied exactly — same fonts, images and vector data.

How big a file can I split?

10 MB on Free, 50 MB on Pro. Contact us for larger enterprise needs.

Is Split PDF free to use?

Yes. The Free plan lets you run Split PDF twice a day on files up to 10 MB, no card required. Pro removes the daily limit and raises the size cap to 50 MB.

Does Split PDF work on Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android?

What's the maximum file size?

10 MB per file on the Free plan, 50 MB on Pro and 200 MB on Business. Larger files should be compressed first with the Compress PDF tool.
