There's no catch.

No account. No trial. No watermark. No "upgrade to download."

Split PDF pages, two ways

Pick the one that matches what you're actually trying to get out.

⁄

By page range

Enter a first and last page and pull that section out. Add several ranges at once, so a long report becomes an intro, a body and an appendix in a single pass.

▤

Every page separately

Each page becomes its own PDF, bundled into one ZIP. The fastest way to break up a stack of documents that went through a scanner together.

⬡

Nothing uploaded

The split runs in your browser. Contracts, statements and medical records never reach a server, so there's nothing for anyone to store or leak.

How to split PDF pages

Three steps, no account, and the page count is shown before you start.

Step 1

Add your PDF

Drag it in or choose a file. The page count appears, so you know the range you're working with.

Step 2

Set your ranges

Enter the pages you want and name each output, or switch to splitting every page.

Step 3

Download

Grab each file on its own, or take the lot as a single ZIP. No watermark on any of them.

Split a PDF without an Adobe subscription

Acrobat charges monthly for this. Here's what people use it for.

Sending one chapter instead of the whole book Separating scanned documents fed through together Pulling one invoice out of a monthly statement Splitting a lease into the pages that need signing Extracting a single form from a tax packet Cutting a deck into per-section handouts Removing an appendix before emailing a report Getting under an upload form's page limit

Free. Actually free.

One page or five hundred. No daily counter, no paid tier hiding behind it.

What's the catch?

Fair question. Here's the honest version.

Upload your PDF, choose whether you want custom page ranges or every page separated, enter the pages and click Split PDF. Each result downloads on its own or all together as a ZIP. There's no account to create, no watermark and no daily limit, and the file never leaves your device.

Choose Custom page ranges and enter the first and last page you want — for example 3 to 7. You can add several ranges in one pass, so a long report can be cut into an intro, a body and an appendix at the same time, each downloading as its own file. Give each range a filename and the downloads arrive already named.

Yes. Choose Split every page and each page of the document becomes its own PDF. A 40-page file produces 40 files, bundled into a single ZIP so you're not clicking through forty downloads. This is the quickest way to break up a batch of scanned documents that were fed through a scanner in one go.

This page works in Safari on a Mac with nothing to install, which is usually faster than the alternatives. Preview can also do it — open the PDF, show thumbnails, select the pages you want and drag them to the desktop — but that gets tedious past a few pages and it can't produce several named ranges in one pass.

No. The pages are copied into the new files exactly as they are, with no re-compression, so text stays selectable and images keep their original resolution. A split page is byte-for-byte the same page it was in the original document.

Files up to 500MB are supported, which covers almost any scanned document. Because the work happens in your browser rather than on a server, a very large file depends on your device's memory — on an older phone a 500MB scan may be slow, while a laptop will handle it comfortably.

Not directly — an encrypted PDF can't be read until the password is removed. Open it in the free Unlock PDF tool first, enter the password you already know, then split the unprotected copy here. This only works for documents you have the password for.

No. The split runs entirely in your browser, so your document stays on your device the whole time. You can check this yourself: load the page, turn on Airplane Mode, and it still splits. There's no file on our end to store, scan or accidentally expose.
