Tips for Splitting PDFs
Drag and drop to split PDFs instantly
Drag PDF files from your file explorer directly onto the container. Up to 10 files can be uploaded at once for batch splitting.
Use page range for large documents
For PDFs with many pages, type a range like "1-4, 3-8" instead of clicking individual checkboxes. Split specific PDF pages faster.
Deselect then pick specific pages
Click Deselect All first, then check only the pages you need. This is faster when you need just a few pages from a large document.
Download Selected vs Download All
Use Download Selected as ZIP to get only the checked pages. Use Download All as ZIP to get every page regardless of selection.
Split PDFs and images stay separate
Every page in the ZIP is its own single-page PDF file, named with the original filename and page number for easy identification.
Remove files before splitting
Hover over any file card and click the red remove button to remove it. The remaining files stay intact. Add replacements with Add PDFs.
Your work persists across refreshes
Uploaded PDFs, page selections, and state are saved to IndexedDB. Refresh the page and everything is restored. Click Clear All to start fresh.

Split PDFs securely - no server upload

Split before sharing for smaller files
Instead of sending a large PDF and telling someone which pages to look at, split out just those pages and send a focused, smaller file.
