How it works

Also called unmerging a PDF — split any PDF into separate pages or extract exactly the pages you need. No upload, no signup, works instantly in your browser.

Split or unmerge a PDF in 3 steps

  1. 1

    Add your PDF

    Drop a PDF into the upload area or tap "Browse files" to choose from your device.

  2. 2

    Type the page range

    Enter pages and ranges like 1-3, 5, 7-9. Ranges are order-sensitive — type 5, 1, 3 to reorder pages in the output.

  3. 3

    Download the result

    Tap "Split PDF." The extracted pages become a new PDF, built locally and saved to your downloads.

Why split PDFs here?

🔒

Private

Upload the whole document, extract a fragment — all locally. Nothing leaves your browser.

Instant

No upload, no queue. Page extraction happens in milliseconds at browser speed.

🔀

Order-sensitive

Type 5, 1, 3 to get those pages in that order. Most PDF splitters can't do this.

Extract PDF pages without uploading

The most common reason to split a PDF is to share something specific — page 5 of a contract, the appendix of a report, the form section of a longer document — without sending the whole file. Doing that on a third-party server defeats the purpose: you've still uploaded the entire document.

This private PDF splitter reads your document into browser memory, extracts the pages you request using pdf-lib, and saves a new PDF to your downloads. The original is never modified. No upload step exists.

The range syntax is flexible: comma-separated pages and ranges, in any order. Reverse ranges work too — type 10-1 to reverse a 10-page document.

Combine the result with other PDFs using our PDF merger, or convert pages to images with PDF to JPG.
