Split PDF

Split a PDF into several files: every N pages, by page ranges like 1-3, 4, 5-9, by file size, or one file per page. Free and online. The files come as a ZIP, and nothing is uploaded.

What you can do

  • Split every N pages, for example a 100-page scan into chapters of 10.
  • Type page ranges such as 1-3, 4, 5-9 and get one file for each range.
  • Split by size: each file stays under a limit like 4 MB, for upload forms and email.
  • Make one file per page.

Good to know

  • Several files come as one ZIP named after your PDF. If the result is a single file, you get that PDF directly.
  • Files are named after your PDF and their pages, for example "report-1-3.pdf".
  • In size mode, a single page that is bigger than the limit is reported. Compress the PDF first, then split it.
  • A PDF with a password asks for it when you open the file.
