About This Tool

PDF Split lets you extract individual pages or page ranges from a PDF document and save them as separate files. This is perfect for pulling a specific chapter from a large book, isolating a single invoice from a batch, or breaking a multi-section report into standalone documents. All processing runs in your browser - no files are uploaded anywhere.

Upload your PDF and the tool displays a page list with thumbnail previews. Select the pages or ranges you want to extract using a simple interface - enter ranges like 1-3, 5, 8-12 or click individual page thumbnails. The tool then creates a new PDF containing only the selected pages, ready for download.

Because the tool uses pdf-lib for client-side PDF manipulation, your documents remain private and the splitting is fast even for large files. This is especially handy for legal professionals, students, and anyone who regularly needs to break apart PDF documents without installing desktop software.
