How to split a PDF
- Choose one PDF, up to 100 MB. A preview of its first 30 pages appears, numbered, so you can see what’s where.
- Pick One file per page, or pick The page ranges below and type the pages you want.
- Press Split PDF. Download the new files one by one, or all of them together in a single ZIP.
Writing page ranges
Separate ranges with commas. Each range becomes its own PDF:
- 1-3 makes one file with pages 1, 2 and 3.
- 5 makes a file with just page 5.
- 8- runs from page 8 to the last page, and -4 from the first page to page 4.
So 1-3, 5, 8- gives three files. Pages are counted the way the file counts them, starting at 1, which isn’t always the number printed on the page: a report with a cover and a contents page may print “1” on its third page. The numbers under the preview show the count the tool uses. A range that isn’t in the file, such as page 0 or a page past the end, gets a clear message and nothing is made.
What you get
Each new file holds exact copies of its pages: text stays selectable and searchable, images keep their quality, and page sizes don’t change. Files are named after the original and their pages, such as report-page-3.pdf or report-pages-1-3.pdf, so they sort in order. Bookmarks and fillable form fields don’t carry over into the new files. Your original PDF isn’t touched.
Saving the new files
“Download all” saves every new file inside one ZIP, which is easier than saving dozens of files one after another, and phones often block a burst of separate downloads anyway. Most computers and phones open a ZIP with a tap or a double-click: on an iPhone it opens in the Files app, on Android in Files or your downloads. To keep just one page, use the Download button beside it instead.
Pages together in one file
Each range makes its own file. To put pages from different places together, say page 2 and page 7, split them out, then join them with Merge PDF.
Protected and damaged files
PDFs with a password can’t be split, even when the password only stops editing and the file opens normally. Save an unprotected copy from the app that made it, then split that. A damaged file gets a message rather than a broken result.
