How to split a PDF

  1. Upload your PDF (drag & drop or browse).
  2. Choose Split PDF and pick every page, every N pages, or custom ranges like 1-5,6-10,11.
  3. Download the result and compare it with your original before sharing.

A practical starting point

For six pages, custom ranges 1-2,3-6 create two PDFs inside the ZIP. Every page instead creates six files. Extract Pages is the choice for one combined output.

Frequently asked questions

What are the limits of Split PDF?

Splitting uses physical page positions including covers, not chapter detection. Open the ZIP before trying to use its individual PDFs.

How should I check the Split PDF result?

Unzip and inspect the start and end of each part. Check every range ends within the source page count.
