How to split a PDF

- Choose Extract pages and type the pages you want, or choose Every page.
- Select the button to split, then download the result.
Page range examples
| You type | You get |
|---|---|
3 | Page 3 only |
1-5 | Pages 1 to 5 |
1-3, 7, 10-12 | Pages 1, 2, 3, 7, 10, 11 and 12 |
8- | Page 8 to the end |
-4 | The first four pages |
5-1 | Pages 5 to 1, in reverse order |
Choose One PDF to get all the pages in a single file, or One PDF per range to get a separate file for each comma-separated part.
Common uses
- Sending only the pages that matter. Someone needs pages 4 to 6 of a long contract, not the whole thing. Type 4-6 under Extract pages and send just those pages.
- Separating documents scanned together. A scanner put several documents into one PDF. Choose One PDF per range and type, for example, 1-2, 3-5, 6- to get each document as its own file.
- Every page as its own file. Payslips, certificates or statements scanned in one go can be split with Every page, which saves each page as a separate PDF in a zip.
- A PDF too big for an upload form. If a portal rejects a large PDF but accepts several files, split it into parts and upload each part separately.
