About Split PDF
Select individual pages and inclusive ranges, then create one extracted document or a ZIP containing separate PDF parts.
Split PDF accepts page numbers and inclusive ranges such as 1-3,5,8-10. You can extract every selected page into one document or create a separate PDF for each comma-separated group.
How to use it
- Choose a local PDF and wait for its page count.
- Enter pages such as 1-3,5,8-10.
- Extract one combined PDF or split ranges into a ZIP.
Common use cases
- Extract one chapter or appendix from a longer report.
- Separate a batch scan into individual documents.
- Create a smaller review copy containing only relevant pages.
Worked example
Enter 1-4,5-8 to download two four-page PDFs inside one ZIP.
Limitations and responsible use
- Ranges must refer to existing pages and are evaluated from one, not zero.
- Splitting copies pages but may omit document-level bookmarks, scripts, signatures, or portfolio metadata.
- A split cannot recover logical sections that do not align with page boundaries.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between extract and split?
Extract creates one PDF containing all selected pages; split creates one PDF for each comma-separated range and packages them in a ZIP.
Can ranges overlap?
Yes. Extraction removes duplicate page references, while separate split groups can contain the same source page.
