One file at a time. Everything stays in your browser.
All processing happens in your browser

Add a PDF by clicking or dropping it here. It never leaves your browser.

Split a PDF by pulling out the pages you need into a brand new document. Pick a start page and an end page, then download the extract. Your file never leaves your browser, so even sensitive documents stay private.

How to use

  1. Drop a PDF onto the box or click to choose one from your device.
  2. The page count loads automatically and the range fills in to cover the whole file.
  3. Set the start page and end page you want to keep (numbering starts at 1).
  4. Click Split PDF to build the new document from that range.
  5. Click Download to save the extracted pages as a new PDF.

Examples

  • A 20 page report: set start 1 and end 5 to keep only the summary section, giving a 5 page PDF.
  • A 12 page contract: set start 7 and end 7 to extract just the signature page as a 1 page PDF.
  • A 50 page scan: set start 10 and end 25 to save a 16 page chapter on its own.

FAQs

Does my PDF get uploaded to a server?
No. The split runs entirely in your browser using the pdf-lib library. The file is read locally and never sent anywhere, so private documents stay private.
How is the page range counted?
Pages are counted from 1, and the range is inclusive. Setting start 3 and end 6 keeps pages 3, 4, 5, and 6, which is 4 pages in total.
Can I extract a single page?
Yes. Set the start page and end page to the same number. For example start 7 and end 7 produces a one page PDF.
What happens if I enter a page number that does not exist?
The tool checks your range against the real page count and shows a clear message instead of producing a broken file. For example it will tell you the document has only 6 pages if you ask for page 9.
Why will my password protected PDF not split?
Encrypted PDFs cannot be read without the password. Open the file in a PDF viewer, remove the protection, save a copy, then split that copy.
Does splitting change the original file?
No. The original stays untouched on your device. The tool builds a separate new PDF that contains only the pages you chose.
