When it helps
Splitting makes one new PDF for each selected page. It is useful when a portal asks for separate attachments or when you need to send only a particular sheet. The page field accepts comma-separated numbers and ascending ranges. Numbering starts at the first physical page, even when the document has a cover or Roman-numeral introduction. For a single file containing several selected pages, use Extract PDF pages instead.
A practical example
A five-page pack can become five separate PDFs, each named with its source page number.
Before you share the result
Separating pages does not remove sensitive information that remains on those pages. Inspect each output before sending it. Document-level bookmarks, forms and signatures are not guaranteed to carry over. The browser memory limit and the published page cap apply to the whole input.
Keep a separate copy of the source file. Check the downloaded result in the application your recipient will use, especially page order, small text and important numbers. Conversion is not a guarantee that a portal will accept a document.
Questions about split pdf
Can I split just one range?
Yes. Enter a range; each selected page becomes a separate file.
How do I keep selected pages together?
Use Extract PDF pages to create one output rather than separate files.
Are my files sent to your server?
The processing code runs in this browser. Input files and generated results are not uploaded by the tool. Visiting the page still makes ordinary requests for site assets, and the hosting server may record those requests. Read the tool privacy explanation.
