PDF Split / Extract Pages

Extract specific pages or ranges from a PDF, split it into single pages, or divide it into chunks of N pages. Download the result as a PDF or a ZIP.

OR DRAG & DROP HERE — ONE FILE AT A TIME

Choose a PDF to see its page count and the split options.
Note: Everything runs on your device — your PDF is never uploaded. Multi-file results come as a ZIP. Password-protected or corrupted files cannot be read.

What can I do with this tool?

  • Extract pages — pick exactly the pages you need (e.g. 1,3,5-8) and save them as one new PDF.
  • Split into single pages — every page becomes its own PDF, delivered as a ZIP.
  • Split into ranges — divide the document into chunks of N pages (e.g. 5 pages per file).

How to use this tool

  1. Drop a PDF file (or click to choose it).
  2. Pick a mode: extract, single pages or ranges.
  3. Enter the pages or chunk size and click the action button.
  4. Open the downloaded PDF — or unzip the ZIP to see all files.

Page ranges, explained

Write pages separated by commas, and use a dash for a range: 1,3,5-8 means pages 1, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8. The order you type is kept in the output, so 5-8,1 puts page 5 first. Out-of-range numbers are rejected with a clear warning.

Getting splits right

  • Two strategies: extract only the pages you need (e.g. 3-5) or split everything into one file per page — pick whichever the recipient actually wants.
  • Order is preserved — pages come out in the order you type, so 5,1,3 gives you a file in that sequence if the tool allows reordering.
  • Naming convention — files come out as page-001.pdf, page-002.pdf… so alphabetical order matches page order in any file manager.
  • Encrypted PDFs must be unlocked first; split cannot read protected files.
  • Common uses: sending just one chapter, separating a scanned batch, extracting an invoice from a statement.

Your privacy

Everything runs in your browser. Your PDF is never sent to any server and never stored.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I extract specific pages?+

Choose the Extract mode and type the pages, e.g. 1,3,5-8 for pages 1, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8. The result is one PDF with those pages in the order you typed.

Can I split every page into its own PDF?+

Yes. The 'Single pages' mode creates one PDF per page and packages everything into a ZIP file, so you download a single file and unzip it on your device.

What does 'split into ranges of N' mean?+

It divides the document into consecutive chunks of N pages. A 20-page PDF split into ranges of 5 becomes 4 files of 5 pages each, delivered as a ZIP.

Can I remove pages from a PDF?+

Not directly, but extracting is the same thing in reverse: type the pages you want to KEEP (e.g. 1-3,7) and download — the rest is effectively removed in the new file.

My file shows an error — why?+

The tool cannot read password-protected or corrupted PDFs. Remove the password first and try again.

Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?+

No. The split happens entirely in your browser — the file never leaves your device. Safe for contracts and personal documents.
