Why split a PDF in your browser

Pull a large PDF apart into separate files or page ranges, without uploading it.

Extract the pages you need

Pull out a single page, a range, or every page as its own file — keep only what matters.

Split by range or per page

Choose exact page ranges, or burst every page into its own PDF, packaged into one ZIP.

Original pages, untouched

Each extracted page keeps its original quality and layout — splitting never re-renders or degrades the content.

Split a PDF — FAQ

How do I split a PDF?

Upload the PDF, then click the ✂ between any two pages to set a cut point. You can add as many cuts as you like, or use 'Split every N pages' to place them automatically. When you hit Split & download, each segment is saved as its own PDF, all packed into a single ZIP.

How do I know what ends up in each file?

Before you download, the pages are colour-tinted and badged 'File 1', 'File 2', and so on, and a live count tells you exactly how many files will be created — so there are no surprises.

Is my file uploaded anywhere?

No. The whole split runs locally in your browser — the PDF is read, cut, and zipped on your device and never gets sent to a server. Nothing leaves your machine.

Is there a file-size or page limit?

There's no fixed cap. Because everything runs in your browser, the practical limit is your device's memory — very large or high-page-count PDFs take longer to render and may strain an older phone or laptop.

What do I actually get back, and is it free?

You get a ZIP containing one PDF per segment (named like document-part-1.pdf, document-part-2.pdf). Even if you only set one cut, the output still comes as a ZIP. It's completely free, with no sign-up or watermark. Note: password-protected PDFs need to be unlocked first.

Don't take our word for it — verify it

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your file never leaves your device — it isn't uploaded to any server.

Check for yourself: open your browser's developer tools (F12, or right-click → Inspect) → the Network tab → then run this tool. You won't see your file uploaded anywhere, because the work happens locally on your device.
