How to separate a PDF into multiple files
Choose your files
Add a PDF and type the pages after which it should be cut, for example 3, 7. Leave the field empty to get every page as its own file.
Each part becomes a new PDF
Your browser copies the pages of each part into a new PDF without changing them, so text and quality stay exactly as they were.
Download instantly
Download the parts. Several parts come together in one zip file; on many phones a second button saves them separately.
Tips for splitting PDFs
Ranges give exactly the files you want
Type ranges instead of split points: 1-3, 8-10 makes exactly those two files, and 5- means page 5 to the end. Pages you leave out are listed in a note, so nothing goes missing unnoticed.
Pick split points on the previews
With one PDF you see its pages: tap a page to split after it, and a counter shows how many files you will get.
Every part is a complete PDF
Each part keeps the bookmarks, links and form fields of its own pages, and is named after them, for example report-pages-4-7.pdf.
Honest about the limits
Splitting works with whole pages: one page can't be cut in two. With 3, 7 you get pages 1–3, 4–7 and 8 to the end.
Questions about splitting PDFs
How do I split a PDF for free?
Drop one or more PDFs into the tool above. Leave the page field empty to split every page into its own file, or type the page numbers after which to cut (e.g. "3, 7") to get a few larger files instead. Click Split and your files download as a zip.
Can I split a PDF into individual pages?
Yes — that's the default. If you don't enter any page numbers, every page of your PDF becomes its own separate PDF file, all collected in one zip download.
Can I choose exactly where to split?
Yes. Enter the page numbers after which the file should be cut, separated by commas — for example "3, 7" on a 10-page PDF creates pages 1-3, pages 4-7, and pages 8-10 as three separate files.
Is there a limit to how many pages I can split?
No artificial limit. The practical limit depends on your own device's memory — on a regular laptop or phone, documents with hundreds of pages usually work without a problem. If a file is very large for your device, the tool warns you before you start. Guideline: up to 50 MB works well on most devices; for larger files a computer is more reliable than a phone.
Do I need to install anything to split a PDF?
No. Splitting happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript — there's nothing to install and no account to create.
How do I download all the parts?
With one part you get one PDF. With several parts you get one ZIP file that holds all of them; open it to see the separate PDFs. On many phones you can also share the files directly.
Can I split several PDFs at once?
Yes. Add several PDFs and each one is split the same way, for example after the same page numbers.
