Online PDF Splitter Tool
PDF Splitter is a fully web-based tool that extracts pages from a PDF or divides a PDF into multiple files, right in your browser. It uses the pdf-lib library to copy the pages you select into brand-new documents that you can download individually or as a ZIP archive. No servers, no uploads, no sign-up - everything happens on your device.
Oversized PDFs are a pain to email, awkward to read on a phone, and hard to share chapter by chapter. Whether you need a few pages out of a contract, want to break a 100-page manual into readable sections, or must separate a batch of scanned documents into individual files, this tool finishes in seconds. Because your file never leaves your device, it is also the safest option for confidential documents.
Common Use Cases
- Extract specific pages - keep only the pages you actually need and skip the rest.
- Break up large documents - split a long PDF into small, email-friendly chunks of N pages each.
- Separate scanned batches - divide a multi-page scan into standalone files by logical section.
Why It's Better Than Desktop Software
- Works everywhere - no installation needed on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, or Android.
- Zero privacy risk - files are handled locally and never travel over the network.
- Flexible output - download files one by one or grab all the results in a single ZIP.
PDF Splitter FAQ
Answers to the most common questions about splitting PDF files online.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. All files are processed locally on your device and never uploaded to any server. Your document stays on your own computer at all times.
How do I extract specific pages from a PDF?
Choose the "Extract page ranges" mode and enter the pages you want, for example 1-3,5,8-10. Each range is saved as its own PDF file.
How do I split a PDF into equal parts?
Choose the "Split every N pages" mode and enter how many pages you want per file. The tool automatically divides the document into evenly sized files.
Can I download all split results at once?
Yes. When multiple files are generated, a "Download ZIP" button appears so you can download every result in one click.
Does splitting reduce PDF quality?
No. Splitting simply copies the original pages into new documents without recompressing anything, so text and images keep their full original quality.
