Split PDF
Pull specific pages out of a PDF, or split every page into its own file — right here in your browser. Free, no signup, no watermark, and nothing is uploaded.
This tool splits one PDF into pages, either a chosen range bundled into one new file, or every page as its own separate file. Choose your PDF, pick a mode, then download — it all happens in your browser, so nothing is ever sent to a server.
Up to 50 MB · split on your device, nothing uploaded.
List pages and ranges separated by commas — they'll be combined into one new PDF in the order you type them.
Choose a PDF to begin.
Don't take our word for it — prove it: turn on airplane mode, or unplug your Wi-Fi, before you split. It still works with zero network connection, because your PDF is read and rebuilt entirely on your device — nothing is sent anywhere.
How to split a PDF
Click the box above to choose a PDF, or drag one straight in. Once it's read, you'll see the page count and two modes: Extract a range into one PDF lets you type specific pages like 1-3,5,8-10 and combines just those into a single new file; Split every page into separate PDFs turns every page of the document into its own individual file. Pick a mode, click the button, and the result downloads straight to your device.
Who this is for
Pulling out one chapter or exhibit. Extracting a single chapter from a long report, or one exhibit from a lengthy contract, without sending the whole document anywhere.
Teachers. Splitting a scanned packet into per-student pages before handing results back or filing them individually.
Removing pages before sharing. Extracting just the pages you want to send someone, leaving the rest of the document out of what you share.
Why in-browser? PDFs often carry contract terms, student records, or personal documents nobody wants sitting on someone else's server, even for a moment. Once this page has loaded, you can disconnect from the internet entirely and it still works — the clearest possible proof that nothing is being sent anywhere.

Frequently asked questions
Is this PDF splitter free?
Yes — completely free, with no signup and no watermark on the result.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. Splitting runs entirely in your browser, so your PDF never leaves your device. Nothing is uploaded, stored, or logged.
Can I pick specific pages instead of splitting everything?
Yes. Choose "Extract a range into one PDF" and type the pages you want, like 1-3,5,8-10 — the tool builds a single new PDF with just those pages, in the order you listed them.
Is there a page or file size limit?
The file size limit is 50 MB. There is no fixed page-count limit — the practical ceiling is how much memory your device and browser have available, since the whole job runs locally.
Does it work with no internet connection?
Yes. Once the page has loaded, turn on airplane mode or unplug your Wi-Fi — splitting still works, because your PDF is read and rebuilt entirely on your device.
What happens if my PDF is password-protected?
You'll see a clear message asking you to remove the password first. Password-protected PDFs can't be read in the browser, so there's nothing to split until the password is removed.
How do I download multiple split files?
When you split every page into separate files, your browser downloads them one after another automatically, named after your original file — for example report-page-1.pdf, report-page-2.pdf, and so on. Your browser may ask permission to allow multiple downloads from this page; allowing it lets all the pages come through.
