Split PDF Online

Extract pages or divide documents into parts.

Big PDF files are unwieldy. Whether you have a 500-page report and only need chapter 3, or you scanned a stack of receipts and want to separate them, splitting is the answer.

This guide shows you how to safe split PDF files online.

Ways to Split a PDF

  1. Extract Pages: Select specific page numbers (e.g., "1-5, 10") to create a new PDF containing only those pages.
  2. Split into Individual Files: Turn a 10-page PDF into 10 separate 1-page PDF files.
  3. Split by Range: Break a document into equal chunks (e.g., every 5 pages).

How to Split Online

  1. Go to our Split PDF tool.
  2. Drag and drop your file.
  3. Click on the "scissor" icons between pages or select the pages you want to extract.
  4. Download your new smaller files.

Pro Tip: Use our local tool for maximum privacy. Splitting sensitive contracts? Don't upload them!
