How to split a PDF online
Splitting a PDF is the inverse of merging: take one document and break it into smaller files. The most common reasons people split are pulling a specific chapter, removing a confidential page, or breaking a 200-page scan into more manageable chunks for emailing.

Frequently asked questions
How do I specify which pages to extract?
Use comma-separated ranges.
1-3 = pages 1, 2, 3. 5 = just page 5. 1, 3-5, 8 creates three separate PDFs.Do I get one file or multiple?
If you specify a single range, you get one PDF. Multiple comma-separated ranges produce a ZIP of separate PDFs.
Is page order preserved?
Yes — within each output, pages keep the same order as in the source.
Are the splits uploaded to a server?
Never. Everything happens in your browser via pdf.js + pdf-lib.
